We stopped for lunch at Byron Glacier. The boys enjoyed a summertime snowball fight and a bit of ice sliding. They also competed to see who could keep their hand in the glacier-fed creek the longest.
The air cleared as we passed through Anchorage on our way to Mirror Lake. Unfortunately, the temperature was increasing at the same time, reaching past ninety degrees again. There didn’t seem to be a place to escape the heat once we got to camp—although I was tempted to just sit in my car as Mera has air conditioning.
Today only had a camp tour on the agenda. We set up our campsite which we are sharing with another camp and spent much of the rest of our time just hanging out. It looks like they will be keeping the boys pretty busy the rest of the week. I’m looking forward to it cooling down a bit.
