    I played music at Chena Hot Springs about 45 years ago when it was a run down place in need of lots of work. We cross country skied up the canyon behind the springs for an over nighter at below zero temperatures. It is amazing what they have done with the place.

Cora, I would love to know what kind of boots you were wearing on this episode at the Denali observation point. Also, any recipes Jose would like to share with my husband would be awesome! Keep up the great work!! We look forward to every new episode.

    Although there's not a village here year round, per se, I learned long ago on a Sat. AM program (Rock the Park, I believe), that the park rangers there to patrol the park via dog sled.
    Wisconsin? I'm watching from my hometown, and still home--Rockford, IL--just the other side of the Cheddar Curtain.😀
    If I remember correctly, the famous and multi-winning lady musher in the Iditarod--Susan Butcher--lived in Chena Hot Springs.

    We took the bus tour through Denali 2 years ago. The next day they closed the road because a section of the road slid away from the mountain side. They said a bridge had to be built in order to reopen the road. Do you know if it is open now?

    • @ArtWeThereYet
      @ArtWeThereYet  ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh wow, you LITERALLY were one of the last people to take a bus tour all the way in! The road is still closed with a projected reopening in 2024. But you know how construction projects are… I wouldn’t be surprised if it doesn’t de-open until 2026.
