5.00One of the biggest highlights of the trip, letting us be completely alone on the top of a mountain. Josh and Mike guided us onto fellows mountain and showed us incredible views. Would highly recommend this to any traveler to Denali, especially those who have their own high end camera and are into photography. Josh showed us how to take better photos of the views and wildflowers and plenty of tricks even with our phone cameras for better pictures.
