Went to see the glacier and Holy mackerel it was beautiful. If any Alaskan hasn't gone out there they are totally missing out. Took the Argo out on a fantastic argoventure.

Nice campground. A little dusty from all the wheelers but spots 23,24,25, & 26 are the best ones back within the trees. Can get busy on 4th of July but over all a great area. If you don't have wheelers just know it is busy and folks like to party and have a great time.
