DSCN0615.jpg
And the next night we found a dog.
aaq.jpg
Mt. Roberts tram car. There are two - the Eagle and the Raven.
abg.jpg
He was in the nature center on Mt. Roberts; I love that they gave him an ID badge (yes, it has his picture and name on it, and identifies his job as "Chief Marmotte" [sic]).
aap.jpg
Just in case you wondered.
abf.jpg
Really wacky tree on the trail, probably another product of the poor soil. The trees had to adapt to survive.
abe.jpg
Nature trail.
abd.jpg
Nature trail.
abc.jpg
Nature trail.
aaz.jpg
The trail we were climbing...still not quite there yet!
abb.jpg
Yet more strange and beautiful flowers on the trail.
aay.jpg
Gastineau Channel, the bridge, and distant mountains from still higher on the Mt. Roberts nature trail.
aax.jpg
We stopped to take a breather before climbing up to the snow field (that's me taking in the gorgeous view).
aaw.jpg
We went up the nature trail about as far as the lowest snow field. We would have gone higher but it was a warm day and we didn't have any water with us.
aav.jpg
Another "just to prove we were really there" photo. The mountain in the background is Mt. Juneau, I believe. We were up on the nature trail above the Mt. Roberts tramway.
aau.jpg
The Gastineau Channel looking the other way. Across the channel is Douglass, which used to be another town until it combined with Juneau. They're connected by a bridge which is visible near the center of the picture. The cruise ship (not ours) had to anchor out there because the dock is only big enough for three ships at a time, so they had to tender. There was one other ship running tenders as well; not sure why we were one of the privileged three, but since tenders are a pain, I'm glad we didn't have to here.
