Day 4 - Juneau
Juneau is the capital of Alaska, and a southern island.
A tour bus took us around to a few sights:
DIPAC Fish Hatchery
Mendenhall Glacier
Gold Creek Salmon Bake
Fish Hatchery ladder
A non-profit fish hatchery helped to restore salmon in the area. They have a museum and explain how they harvest eggs to grow salmon.
Tight Quarters
Once the salmon swim up the ladder, they land here. Workers sort them by species.
Mendenhall Glacier
Mendenhall Glacier is a glacier about 13.6 miles long located in Mendenhall Valley, about 12 miles from downtown Juneau in the southeast area of the U.S. state of Alaska.
Just me and a glacier
... and all the other people, of course.

The waterfall to the right is melt from further up the glacier.

Just a short hike on the Gold Creek Salmon Bake property brought us to this site. 🤩
