These are a few photos my father and I took during a trip to Alaska in June, 1984. We spent some time in Anchorage and then made our way to Wasilla where we caught the train to Denali National Park. In Denali National Park, we spent the night in old sleeping cars that served as the hotel at the lodge. The following afternoon we caught the train and continued on to Fairbanks.
