Today we traveled from Tolsona Wilderness Campground to Mountain View RV Campground near Palmer, AK. The scenery along the trip varied from greatly from snow covered mountains to valley floors & river views, but about midway we were able to stop alongside the highway and view the Matanuska Glacier in the distance. The Matanuska travels from high up in the mountains down to the valley below and it is the portion of the glacier in the valley that we were able to see and photograph.
The glacier movement can be seen at it's valley destination below. We arrived in Palmer several hours later and have set up camp here for the next week or so and will be traveling into the Anchorage area (about 45 miles south) over the next few days to shop and take in the sights of Anchorage. Anchorage is by far the largest city in Alaska with a population in excess of 300,000.
