Chena Hot Springs November 2016
Beginning the trip up the 2 3/4 mile Charley Dome trail. Altitude 374 meters.
Or more below!
Looking back down the trail toward the resort which is partially visible near the center of the picture.
The tracks in the snow are made by the tourist tractor that carries people to the yurt
two miles up the trail for nightly aurora viewing. Altitude 417 meters.
It took 1 hour and 5 minutes to reach the yurt.
It is only a two mile hike but there is quite a bit of uphill climbing and a fair number of stops
along the way to take pictures. Altitude 782 meters.
Charley Dome is another 3/4 mile hike to the South.
There are no tracks in the snow so nobody has been over there in at least a week or more.
Looking West from Charley Dome.
There is a fire barrel at the top of Charley Dome.
Altitude 834 meters is 460 meters or 1510 feet climb from the resort.
The top of Charley Dome.
The sun has just set.
Long exposure to show the yurts 3/4 mile North and 50 meters below my position on the top of Charley Dome.
Another long exposure from half way down the Charley Dome trail showing some slight remaining color in the sky on the clouds.
