Visiting Denali Park?
1. Sit on the left side of the bus going out into the Park.
2 In order to get a close look at the mountain if it's not clouded over, the bus MUST go into the Park as far as Stoney Hill no whether what they tell you to sell you an excursion.
We lived in Fairbanks for 30 years and had a commercial/industrial, stock, fine art and poster business. Spent weeks at a time in the Park. Bring a sweater and rain coat even it's 80 degrees at the start.

Keep in mind, the size of the sensor doesn't affect the magnification of any lens. As Ansel pointed out decades ago, a 200 is a 200 is a 200 regardless of whether it's attached to a 35mm camera or a 4x5. Superimposed on a light table, the images on the film will coincide perfectly it's just that the 4x5 will include much more around your subject. But, again, the main subjects will coincide.
So, a 1.6x crop because the sensor is not full frame is just that, a 1.6x crop and doesn't "make" a 400mm lens into a 560. The 400 is still a 400 on the camera with 1.6x sensor compared to FF, but will isolate the main subject and include less stuff around your main subject.
It's surprising how many even older photographers don't know this.
Sure, another horse won by a second or two in the toughest of the three races in five weeks, but rested up before hand by not racing in at least one of the prior 2 races to qualify for a "triple crown" shot. This ought to be about horses and jockeys trying to beat each other, not humans coming up with schemes to prevent a triple crown win by arguably the best overall horse. I agree with CC's owner completely. The rules have to be changed.
