Very rainy. We did an independent excursion up the Mount Roberts tramway and tacked on a shuttle tour to Mendenhall Glacier. Beautiful. Bring good hiking shoes. Don't bring food to Mendenhall because of the the bears. ...
I would highly recommend Mendenhall Glacier. If you want to save some money, take the city bus for $2 and then you will take a paved trail 1.5 miles into the national park. An Uber runs about $40 each way. ...
We enjoyed a hike on Mt. Roberts. Great views. Had fantastic weather. Could have had a little more time in this port. The line for the cable car to/from the visitors center on the mountain was long (like 45 minutes). ...
We have seen the glacier several times and watched it receding. Going this time of year we were able to see a mother bear and cub fishing for salmon in the stream nearby! ...
