My family is visiting AK for the first time. I am thinking about taking them to Denali Park, using the Train. First of all, I did my own research.
If I do go, I'd like to stay for about 2 days, one day using the guided tour. Then may be find a shuttle to be dropped off at a hiking trail for the other day.
Is there anything else do to there? I heard about Water rafting and that is out of option at this time.
Another question is, carrying. Should I bring it with me?
I know on Train I have to keep the firearm in the locked container and disabled to be used.
I also do know the guided tour I won't need. And the shuttle seems to be similar as the Train.
Then what about once I am on a trail? Would you recommend to carry? It seems to be too hectic to even take my carry pistol there.
Also just asking another random question to prevent another post by me: Do you guys carry to a short trail, let's say Thunderbird Falls? What do you guys usually do when you go on trails?
I use chest holster.
Thank you for your opinions! Also you can recommend any other spots within 3-4 hours of driving from Anchorage that I could take my family to.
Thank you!!
