Our next destination being Seward, we drove south towards Seward. The highway is very scenic, so we stopped a few times for pictures:

Next, we stopped at Girdwood/Alyeska Ski Resort and took their somewhat overpriced tram up for a view and a short hike (we only stayed 30mn so as to arrive in time at our next destination for animal talks):

had we had more time, we could have hiked up

sadly all the ski lifts were closed, the snow was also gone, and I forgot my snowboard. Luck was not on my side :)

We then hurried towards the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center for their 14:30 fox talk and 2 more talks after that:

Their neighbours were coyotes:

They had some adorable porcupines, including one that was missing a leg:

they taught it to walk up and down its new 3 floor condo despite the missing leg

another one, next door

nie haircut, buddy :)

haha, this one was eager with its food

The Alaskan cat is the lynx:

sadly it didn't come out to see us

Bears of course (both brown/grizzly and black):

the michoko bird was fighting the bears for their food

that's an unbearable paint job :)

Plenty of other animals:

After that, we continued the drive to Seward:
