Not really PC, but this isn't CA.

Nenana River. Low water. Looking upstream. You can barely see the highway on the left hand side. The railroad is on the right hand side. If you're here on the river, the next take-out is through the canyon at Healy.

The three with the autumn colors.

All are fairly accessable by road. The river is 4 hours away, the lake is 6 hours away or so and the flat top mountain is 15 minutes to the parking lot to climb it.

It would be a dream come true to get up there to not only hike but also to shoot photography.

You're not encumbered. Make plans.
