Alaska Trip Ideas
Posted: Wed Dec 12, 2012 2:35 am
The wife and I are planning a couple week trip to the Anchorage area next July/August (2013). We are planning on doing a 4-5 day backpacking trip around Denali and any suggestions for some loops in the park would be great. We are also looking for some day, or even over-night hikes in the Anchorage area to fill in the rest of the days between a bit of kayaking and sightseeing. We are generally looking at the Chugach Mountains and a couple days in the Kenai Peninsula. We tend to enjoy climbing peaks, maybe something with some 3rd of 4th class for a little excitement, but really just want to experience the beauty that Alaska has to offer….I guess hikes with the most bang for the buck! I’ve been checking out the peaks here on Summitpost and there looks to be some…well a lot of great ones, but hopefully someone has a few suggestions to start narrowing down the search. Any other suggestions as to things to see/do are also welcome. Thanks.
