So, here we are, enjoying a beer at the McKinley Chalet Resort in Denali, after a four hour drive from Fairbanks. The road is in a constant state of repair during the summer months because of the heaving and potholes caused by the melting of the permafrost under the roadbed. In an attempt to prevent this, the road crews are now putting down an insulating barrier between the permafrost and the road surface. I'm hoping you can see this in the picture I took from the bus. We're at the lodge now for the next three nights. Tomorrow we take an all-day tour in the park.
