Google Map To The Alaska Musk Ox Farm, Palmer, Alaska.

Located in Palmer, Alaska, the Musk Ox Farm is a private non-profit organization established for the development and domestication of the musk ox. The Musk Ox Project, begun in 1954, is to introduce a gentle, non-intrusive form of agriculture to the Arctic Area. These animals form the basis of a cottage industry for Native Alaskans living in remote coastal villages. The soft under-wool of the musk ox, qiviut, is harvested once a year and delivered to Oomingmak, an Alaskan native knitter's co-operative. The knitters then work at home in Eskimo villages throughout Alaska creating scarves, nachaqs (Eskimo smoke rings) and luxurious caps. Each village has it's own signature pattern derived from traditional designs. These tame cows, powerful bulls, and newborn calves are a delight to watch.

The Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport (IATA: ANC, ICAO: PANC, FAA LID: ANC)[2] is the major airport in the state of Alaska located 4 nautical miles (7 km) southwest of downtown Anchorage. Fairbanks and Juneau are the next busiest airports. Anchorage traffic peaks during June, July and August when passenger numbers are twice as high as between October and April.

We would suggest flying into Anchorage, renting a car, and then driving to Denali & Mount McKinley.
