Caribou explores Denali National Park

While hiking Denali National Park with my partner this summer, this beautiful creature came inches from us while on our bicycles. We froze in place and waited as this great Caribou passed merely inches from where we were standing. The Caribou and I locked eyes, something about his soul reminded me this country will be okay.
