From Library Journal:
Walker provides a unique and fascinating description of the Denali (formerly Mt. McKinley) National Park in a daily format. It is a "natural history calendar" which describes the day-to-day events in the park as the seasons change. The reader feels the extreme cold temperatures of December, January, and February, the rush of new life in the spring as the migratory birds return, the alpine meadows bloom, and the animals bear their young, the warmth and length of the summer days accompanied by mosquitos and other insects, the close of summer, and the preparation for the impending arctic winter as the birds and many animals prepare to migrate south. This journal will be especially useful for anyone planning a trip to the park. Highly recommended for all general collections.
