Yosemite’s Glacier Point and Sentinel Dome

on October 14, 2017October 14, 2017By David Goldstein

California’s Yosemite National Park is truly one of the most breathtaking places on Earth.

And being there in October allowed us to miss most of the crowds that tend to choke Yosemite during the summer, as well as the winter weather that will inevitably close Glacier Point for the season within the next few weeks.

Two-thirds of this area, added by the Alaska National Interest…

Hike to Smuggler’s Cove in Skagway, AK

on May 27, 2017May 27, 2017By David Goldstein

Skagway, once a Klondike gold-rush boomtown, today thrives mainly on tourism. We'd been here twice before on Alaskan cruises, so we'd done many of the day excursions in the area. After spending all day yesterday exploring the downtown Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park on three ranger-led tours, we were…
