Danali float plane tour - We could see the entire mountain, which I understand is pretty rare. The view from the plane was the highlight of our trip.

A Amazing experience a must do. - The flight was amazing, over glaciers, between mountain peck’s. The wilderness hike was not in Denali National Park but we still had amazing views of Denali.

Awesome Hike but NOT at Denali National Park - This is a bit of a mixed experience for us. The floatplane ride to Caribou lodge was wonderful - the guided hike from Caribou Lodge at Boomerang Lake was really awesome - Zack showed us amazing tundra plant life - his family at Caribou lodge opened our eyes with their lifestyle and their hospitality. So full points to them for our delightful hiking experience. But due to cloudy conditions the flight service to view Denali National Park from the air was canceled (the float plane service reimbursed us very promptly for the missed portion of the trip). Here's my issue - the blurb states "Experience Denali National Park from the air and at ground level" The clouds made us miss the "from the air portion" and we accept with gratitude what Mother Nature grants us, but there was *never* a chance of experiencing Denali NP "at ground level." So by following this ad, we missed out on visiting Denali National Park on a once in a lifetime trip to Alaska, and that was disappointing indeed. The ad needs to be clear that there is NEVER a chance to experience Denali National Park *at ground level* with this service. If the weather permits, you see DNP from the air, but you never get to DNP at ground level, no matter what.
