Several years ago on our trip to Alaska we took a flight that would circle Mount Denali – the tallest mountain peak in North America.  The mountain is so large it creates its own weather and summertime visitors only have about a 30 percent chance of seeing the mountain peak.

As this photo attests we were blessed with clear skies and a beautiful view.  Captured on my iPhone from the small plane that took off from Talkeetna.   I love the dramatic shapes of the peaks with the streaky blue sky, the puffy clouds and the snow covered valleys below.
