The Two RV Gypsies and family in Denali National Park

Lee and Karen Duquette,
The Two RV Gypsies: Full-Time RVers
and family at Denali National Park

This page only shows a small part of Denali National Park, when the two RV Gypsies took their daughter and grandchildren on a very long bus ride to Kantishna looking for wildlife. Lee and Karen Duquette were in Denali National Park earlier and that page has more history, photos and data about Denali National Park, plus Mt. McKinley (Denali mountain), an igloo, Jeff King's Husky Homestead, sled dogs and more. They also returned to Denali National Park in 2016. Use the TOC button at the bottom of most pages and choose National Parks if you wish to see those pages. All three times at Denali National Park provided different experiences, photos, and wildlife. This page is really for the kids.


Renee, Kristen and Lee went up the hill during a 15-minute break from the bus ride. Alex Jones went in a different direction. Karen Duquette took photographs of all of them.

Below: Another break from the long bus ride - Toklat River (mile 53). Alex Jones played with the rocks, as usual.



Below: The little tiny white spots on the mountains are Dall Sheep - Whoopee Doo! -

Below: The black spots are caribou. Karen Duquette got better photos of caribou later because she saw a lot of caribou on this day trip in different areas.

Below: A stop at Eielson (mile 66) A newly rebuilt visitor center and Alex Jones being a kid.

Below: End of the road - Kantishna - (mile 90). A nice lunch of soup, sandwiches, pudding. Alex panned for gold, then everyone explored the area.They wish the tour allowed more time here.
