591

We left Friday morning to head to Valdez. You can see how excited the Pugs were to be going on a car ride!

View of the Matanuska Glacier.

Wild forget-me-not in Glenallen, and you gotta love the locals :-)

There are several spots along the highway that you can pull over and walk up to the Pipeline.

Us and our travelling Pugs.

Love this area of the drive, the mountains are very dramatic and stay snow topped year round.

Entrance to Worthington Glacier, it is very pretty this time of year.

Horsetail Falls and Bridal Veil Falls in Keystone pass on the way into Valdez.

Our accommodations for the evening, it was better than anywhere else we have stayed in Valdez.

Some interesting local history, unfortunately vandals have taken a liking to the location as well.

The Pugs all tuckered out and ready to head home.
The meaning of 591?? That's the mileage from Anchorage to Valdez and then back home again.
