Dinner Theater We had our first dinner on a sandbar on the Eagle River, at a late hour more typical of a Mediterranean country.

We didn't hit trail until about 5:00pm - but we still had usable light after 11:00pm this far north near #Anchorage #Alaska.

Dinner views included warm light before #sunset and the start of shadows on the #ChugachMountains. #CrowPass Trail.
