Juneau Hikes Quest : May 2013

Previous Hikes

UPDATE 7/7/13
Update 5/31: After reviewing the book, I think I have done 45 hikes!

I do not have pictures of all of the 42 hikes I've previously done but I do have quite a few.

# 3 Cowee Creek Downstream to Echo Cove

I think this is the trail to Echo Ranch

Always a good time out Echo Cove, fishing and enjoying life!

Out at Echo Ranch- a very fun place to be. It is where Becoming and Outdoor Woman retreat is held. Women can learn kayaking, wildlife viewing, edible plants, cooking, orienteering, chainsaw, and so much more

4 Point Bridget State Park Trail

Headed out to Cowee or Blue Mussel

#7 Cedar Lake Trail

Not sure where to put these but these are taken at Blue Mussel Cabin- a really beautiful spot.

The first group camping trip that started the tradition!

#8 North Bridge Cove Trail

#6 Trapper's Trail- which I think is the end of Camping Cove- which is one of our favorite cabins to camp!

#15 and 16 Eagle Beach

Taken at one of the new cabins at Eagle Beach Recreational Site on 3.4.12

This was taken one of the first few weeks we arrived in Juneau!

#18 Boy Scout

Been to Boy Scout many times but this is my favorite pic. Taken 11.11.11

One time we were there the waves were huge!

Eagle Glacier Cabin (sort of #21- have not made it to the Glacier tho)

1st trip with Dree and Mike 7.9.10

2nd trip in winter 11.19.11

#23 Herbert Glacier Trail


We have tried to actually get to the Glacier twice, crossing back and forth, but no luck! #24 Windfall Lake on the road to Windfall

Both a fun hike and camping trip!

#25 Amalga Meadows Natural Area Park Trails

Amalga Harbor

#27 Peterson Lake Trail- have gone twice. The 2nd time was HARDer than Eagle- and that is saying something!

1st camping trip ever! (in Juneau) 3/10

#28 Shrine of St. Terese

Been there a few times- with the rents and for Girls on the Run.

#35 Lena Point Trail AKA Secret Spot- I love this spot

#37 Auke Village Recreation Area Trails- AKA Auke Rec Elementary- my 2nd most favorite spot!

#40 Spaulding Meadows Trail

#41 Auke Nu Trail - John Muir Cabin

#43 Auke Lake Trail

#44 University of Alaska Student Housing Trail
I do not have a picture of this one :(
#45 Auke Creek Fish Hatchery

#46 Ann Coleman

After one of the best days of summer vacation 2011

#48 Blueberry Trail

This one is really cool- it is right by our house and on top there is a helicopter landing pad.

#49 Mendenhall Peninsula Trail

#50 Mendenhall Peninsula Wetlands Access

#54 Lower Montana Creek Trail (I have done most but not all of this trail.)

#58 West Glacier Trail- Another one of my favorites!

My favorite part

(#60- Mount McGinnis Trail- I have not been to the top but I have done part of it)

#61 Dredge Lake
This is one of our favorites to take the dog to.

#62 Moraine Ecology Trail

A good trail to take pics of bears and fish!

#63 Photo Point

#64 Trail of time (or the waterfall trail)

#66 East Glacier Loop Trail AKA the trail of 200 and some stairs

Nugget Creek Trail
We've gone on the trail a couple times when we first got here 5 years ago but I can't find any pics. The trail is pretty cool with washed away bridges and the like.
#73 Airport Dike/Mendenhall Wetlands- again we go on this trail a lot.

7/7/13

#80 Twin Lakes Bike Paths

Actually ran this one!

#83 Peterson Creek Trails
#86 False Outer Point Access

#102 Dan Moller Trail

#108 Treadwell Historic Loop Trails

I don't have a picture of the trail but it is quite neat with old abandoned buildings...kinda Blair Witch Project

Sandy Beach is a great place to take the dog...and its the only beach...with actual sand!

#115 Perseverance Trail- Another one of my favorites!

Looking back toward the city as you come down the trail 7/5

My favorite bridge with one of my favorite hiking buddies!

#115a Red Mill Trail- a Trail off Perseverance Trail

#117 Granite Creek Trail

Only been there once but is a really beautiful spot!

#118 Mount Roberts Trail

The cool wooden bridge that takes you to Perseverance and Mt. Roberts trails.

Picture of the top of Mt. Roberts coming soon!

#122 Bishop Point/Dupont Trail

I've been out to Dupont- great tent camping spot!

As you can see there are more than 90 trails. Some are really short (like 500 feet) or road access trails. My main goal is to hit the big ones, like some Summits!

Perhaps someone can help me with these trails on which number they go under because I am sure that they should be in the book somewhere.
