AWA guide Julie Hinkle wrote this about our Alaska Coast to Denali Journey (known affectionately here as “7-Day”). Read Julie’s bio here… and more about the trip here… enjoy!

Oh what a way
To start a summer with a 7 day
Melt into this magical scene
With a glacier blue and land so green
Out and about with a group of folks
With kind hearts and playful jokes
Watching them learn and seeing their smiles
While the land dramatically stretches for miles
Letting them find the quiet within
Hoping they’ll come back again
For it is the people that remind me
That there is so much Alaska to explore and see
These experiences I will remember
And will warm my heart come December.

Photos never seem to quite capture the memories, image or animal you see while traveling. What do you think is the hardest to photograph? Our Photo Journey guide Wayde Carroll would love to hear what you think, and we’ll post some tips here for you to try on your next trip.

Even better, travel with Wayde on our Photo Journey this summer, and learn from one of Alaska’s foremost wildlife and wilderness photographers while you capture the magic of Alaska.
