Indoor pool area, looking up - aan.jpg
Bear-proof garbage can in Juneau. They apparently do have problems with bears coming into town sometimes. - aah.jpg
Another strange flower we found. - aao.jpg
The Mt. Roberts Tramway. - aak.jpg
Alaska state capitol building, Juneau. - aaq.jpg
Mt. Roberts tram car. There are two - the Eagle and the Raven. - 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. - aaj.jpg
Ketchikan may have the most totem poles, but Juneau has some too. Apparently when the Christians came, they thought the natives worshiped the poles and tried to have them destroyed, but in reality they were a way of passing on histories in a culture that had no written language. - aam.jpg
This depicts the Eagle and the Raven, the two major moieties (clans) of the Tlingit people. Everyone belongs to one or the other, and they can't marry within their own clans -- Eagles have to marry Ravens and vice versa. It's matrilineal, so you belong to whichever one your mother is. - aal.jpg
More Tlingit art. - aat.jpg
View down the mountain from Mt. Roberts. - aap.jpg
Just in case you wondered. - aax.jpg
We stopped to take a breather before climbing up to the snow field (that's me taking in the gorgeous view). - aaz.jpg
The trail we were climbing...still not quite there yet! - aay.jpg
Gastineau Channel, the bridge, and distant mountains from still higher on the Mt. Roberts nature trail.
