There are no snakes here in Alaska and only a few amphibians. It is evidently too cold for them. One ranger told us that there is a Wood Frog in Denali which freezes solid in the Winter and then thaws out in Spring.
Everyone warned us that the mosquitoes were TERRIBLE here but, so far, we have not encountered big swarms YET. We have only had to break out our mosquito head nets twice and that was in the Yukon Territory. We'll let you know if this situation gets worse as we drive back into Canada. We hope not!!
