Description

Tongass National Forest Scenic Lake Hike Come join a stunning 4-mile round-trip hike in a small group of up to 8 people! Hike an improved gravel trail alongside a forested lake below a mountain, where there will be plenty of spots for picture taking. From there, the second mile's more natural tread is mixed with gravel, large rocks, and roots as you ascend through an old-growth rainforest displaying large Sitka spruce, western red cedar, and western hemlock. At 1100 feet of elevation, we will arrive at our destination - the bottom of an avalanche chute. There are only two tours allowed on this cherished trail per day, making this a truly unique experience. You may also ask how to practice mindfulness and connect with your surroundings during the hike, allowing you to take these skills into other areas of your life. Please Note: This is a rural hike and there are no facilities at the trailhead, along the trail, or at the beach. This is a leave-no-trace, tobacco-free, drug-free, and alcohol-free excursion.

Ketchikan, Alaska Information

The first cruise ship appeared in Ketchikan 114 years ago, and it has been a favorite port ever since. You can tour the area by boat, bus, horse-drawn trolley, or even a restored 1955 Chevy. The most famous part of town is Creek Street. The homes once comprising the red light district are now filled with arts, crafts and gift shops. Totem poles are everywhere, with 24 at Saxman Native Totem Park.
