06/20/19 – Healy, AK



After leaving Denali, we stopped in a turnout a couple miles south of Healy for Curt to check out the jeep, and spent the night there.

It was a noisy night, with semi trucks stopping beside us and then taking off. Curt finally got up around 4:15 and caught the sunrise.


We drove to the Napa store for the jeep. Beside Napa is the 49th State Brewing Company. They have a replica of the bus from the book/movie Into the Wild, in which Christopher McCandless lived/died in. You are supposed to be able to go in the bus, which has pictures from the movie in it, but it was still early and the restaurant/bar wasn’t open yet.



From there we went to the post office. We had our mail sent general delivery to the Healy Post Office priority mail, and it was supposed to be delivered the 18th. We stopped today and it still wasn’t there. Their today’s mail hadn’t come yet, the truck was broke down near Nenana so we needed to stick around the area, and found an old gravel pit about three miles north of town and parked there. It was a busy place for target practice during the day. Our Verizon ranged from 1x to 3G to 2 bar LTE.
