Hiking in Alaska - Bears, Eagles, and Snow | Juneau, AK
...and views for days.
My friend Tanner and I hiked Mt Roberts in Juneau, running into bears, eagles, and lots of snow along the way. To get to Mt. Roberts, you need to summit Gastineau Peak first, then drop into a saddle and climb back up to Mt. Roberts Peak on the far side. Gold Ridge is a separate turn off the side, just before you commit to Gastineau. But all three peaks are cool and worth the hike.
To see how close you can get to a wild Bald Eagle, watch my other video here:

Alaska Travel Adventures: Mendenhall Glacier Float Trip in Juneau
Hold on for a safe but exhilarating river-running experience! Put in at the lake at the foot of the spectacular Mendenhall Glacier, and be carried away by the river and views of towering mountains, forests and wildlife. There's a lot of everything in this trip!
Begin with a scenic tour up the Mendenhall Valley. On the shores of Mendenhall Lake, don protective raingear and life jackets, and board your raft. Each holds up to twelve, and is rowed by an experienced guide. Or, if you're looking for a hands-on experience, join a paddle-raft team.
Glide across the iceberg-studded lake, marveling at the 1.5-mile-wide glacier, and set course downstream. The six-mile route combines meandering stretches with Class II and III whitewater. The rapids are perfectly safe, just exciting enough for beginners, and appropriate for all ages. A treat for experienced rafters, too! Encounter river features such as Moon Flats and Pin Ball Alley. Watch for the photographer on shore who snaps your picture, capturing the thrill of your adventure.
Where the river levels out, soak in the views of the riverbank, lush forests, and 7,000-foot mountains above the valley floor. Learn about the natural history of the river. You're likely to see bald eagles, birds nesting in rocky cliffs, black bears, otters and seals, and salmon during spawning season.
At the haul-out, celebrate with an Alaskan-style snack and toast your adventure with a cup of Martha's Mendenhall Madness. You can also purchase an action photo of yourself as a lasting memento of a trip you'll never forget.
Juneau- True alaskan beauty! Whales, bears, nugget falls, mendenhall glacier, seaplane ride and more
Enjoy this beautiful seaplane view from 1400ft over the misty fjords of Alaska . The summer is exciting here.. Several cruise ships like carnival cruise, Norwegian Cruise line, royal Caribbean cruises , Disney cruises , princess cruises etc move some ships from may till September every year to Alaska and take millions of tourists to cruise the inside passage!! Alaska offers many Tours and packages. The ships leave from Seattle and goto Vancouver. Most of them stop in Ketchikan, Skagway and Juneau in Alaska. Some stop in Haines too. Ketchikan is the first city of Alaska. Popular for the totem poles. Great place to go bear watching. And also take a seaplane ride over the misty fjords. Skagway is great for the train ride through the valley to Canada and back. It's the town where the gold rush took place and has a lot of historical significance. Don't miss the famous red onion salon and the Broadway show there. Juneau is the most popular for Whale watching Tours. You are assured to see humpback and may also bump into a pod of orcas or killer whales as they're called. The Mendenhall glacier is just 15mins from downtown. You can also take a helicopter ride to one of the glaciers and they also have a dog sledging tour.
Ketchikan Shore Excursion Visit to Alaska Raptor Center and Creek Street
Ketchikan Shore Excursion Visit to Alaska Raptor Center and Creek Street
This is video from our excursion to the Alaska Rainforest Sanctuary, Raptor Center, and Totem poles. In this video we pick up where we left off after our nature walk through the Tongass rainforest. We watched a native Alaskan tribesman carving a totem pole, visited an historic lumber mill, and then the Alaska Raptor Center. This was the first stop on our Northbound Alaskan cruise sailing out of Vancouver in July. This was one of the excursions offered by the Norweigan Cruise ship. We learned a lot on this tour, the guide was quite knowledgable and shared a lot of information, overall a great experience! The video of the Tongass Rainforest nature walk is here:

Juneau is the capital city of Alaska, located in the state's Southeastern region, with a population of about 30,000 and an area bigger than Rhode Island or Delaware. It has been the capital of Alaska since 1906, when the government of the then-Alaska Territory was moved from Sitka.
One of the interesting things about Juneau and Alaska is the effect on public life of being such a geographically large state. The state legislature, for instance, takes telephone testimony during its committee hearings.

================
Alaska State Museum, 395 Whittier Street, ☎ +1-907-465-2901 (fax: +1-907-465-2976), Open year round: May-Sept, daily 8:30AM-5:30PM: Oct-Apr, Tu-Sa 10AM-4PM. One of Alaska's best exhibits covering the breadth of the State's history, native cultures, wildlife, industry, and art. Approximately a ten-minute walk from the Cruise ship Terminal. Adults: May-Sept $5, Oct-Apr $3: children 18 and under free.
Saint Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church, 326 5th St., ☎ +1-907-586-1023 (fax: +1-907-465-2976), Tiny ornate octagonal structure was originally built by the Tlingits in 1893. When the Russians were still in Sitka 50 years earlier, Father Ivan Veniaminov of the Russian Orthodox Church translated the Bible into Tlingit. Thus this building became southeast Alaska's oldest continuously operating church. $2 entrance donation.
Alaska State Capitol, 4th Street and Main Street, M-F 8:30AM-5PM: Sa-Su 9:30AM-4PM. Completed in 1931 as the territorial Capitol, this building does not have the typical imposing architecture of a State capitol. Today this Capitol building, remodeled in 2006, houses the State Legislature, the Governor, and the Lieutenant Governor. Extensive exhibit of historic photographs in the hallways. Complimentary 30-minute tours are available from mid-May through mid-September. Free.
Mendenhall Glacier This is a massive 1.5 mile wide glacier calving into its own lake, located about 13 miles north of downtown Juneau. To get there, you may take a bus or taxi from where the ships dock to the Mendenhall Glacier Recreation Area. You can pay the driver in cash or buy two tickets at one of the many kiosks on the dock. A taxi ride is about the same cost as a bus if you have 5 or more passengers.
Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center, 8510 Mendenhall Loop Road, ☎ (907)-789-0097 (fax: (907)-789-6643), May-Sept: 8am-7:30pm daily; Oct-April: 10am-4pm Thurs-Sun. Although you can't get right up to the glacier, you can get a great view of it from the visitors center, which is operated by the US Forest Service and is very informative. Photo Point Trail and the salmon, bear and Steep Creek Trail are easy and accessible trails. In August and September, black bears, often with cubs, visit Steep Creek to feed on spawning sockeye (red) salmon. Some trails may be closed then. A series of viewing platforms let the bears walk underneath the many folks watching them fish. No food or soft drinks are allowed in the recreation area, and dogs must be on leash. If you want a moderate hike through some beautiful forest, try the East Glacier trail which loops around east of the visitors' center. Follow the trail clockwise to avoid having to climb many steps -- you'll come down those steps at the end of your hike and to keep the best views of the glacier ahead of you, instead of over your shoulder. $3 fee for visitors center from May to September. Activities outside the center building itself are free of charge, and visitors may use the restrooms and visit the bookstore without paying the fee.
Mendenhall Glacier West Glacier Trail - For the more adventurous, the West Glacier trail which leads directly to the glacier (you can walk on it, but be careful to stay away from crevasses!) and also to a look out. Get off the bus just past the Mendenhall Glacier Campground stop. The stop is called Montana Creek. Walk up the road to the car park at the end (around 2km) and you will see the trail-head. Stick to the path, maybe dropping down to the lake side to checkout the icebergs and grab some photos. Continue along the path, across several bridges and up some switchbacks with fixed cables. Soon you will come to fork in the path, the left is steep and heads to the lookout, the right goes downhill into some dense vegetation. Shortly into the right-hand trail you will come across a shelter slightly off the track. Continue for several miles along the track, taking care on the slippery rock areas.
Alaskan Brewing Company Brewery Tour, If you head down to the Alaskan Brewing Company headquarters they will give you a tour/talk and free tasting of some great beer. A good way to end a day of hiking. To get there, jump on the bus and ask the driver which stop to get off at. Walk across the road and turn at the second right.
