Mountain ridges, Katmai National Park, Alaska, USA.  Early last August, we went to Katmai National Park in Alaska, mainly to see Brown Bears.  It was highly successful and I am going to show you some of my images in the next several postings.  Getting to Katmai is a bit tricky.  You cannot drive from Anchorage to Katmai.  You have to fly to nearby King Salmon, AK.  Furthermore, we were specifically interested in the area around Brooks Falls.  One cannot drive or use other means to get to Brooks Falls.  You must use float planes from King Salmon.  Accommodations are another roadblock.  Since we could not get reservations for the limited cabins near Brooks Falls, we stayed at King Salmon and made day trips to Brooks Falls on float planes.  This image is a shot of Katmai National Park, taken from the float plane as it was close to landing.  Nikon D4S with the 24-120mm f4 lens.  This is my first keeper shot from Day 1 at Katmai.
