Juneau Alaska Tour Of City And Mount Roberts Tramway In Wet Weather Juneau Alaska
Juneau Alaska is the State's landlocked capital city. Weather In Juneau is humid and wet with rain falling an average of 230 days per year and an annual rainfall of 62.5 inches per year and snowfall of 86+ inches per year. Tours in Juneau that attract the most attention from tourists are Mendenhall Glacier, Tracy Arm Fjord, and local fishing and whale watching excursions. If you're visiting by cruise ship and are looking for really easy and simple tours in Juneau hop on the Mount Roberts Tram and tour the easy trails at the top or take a tour of Juneau on a local tour bus.
Juneau weather is very predictable. It's likely to rain during your visit but you can still enjoy the magnificent views from the top of the Mount Roberts tram provided it isn't too foggy.
Be sure to bring a compact umbrella and wear a rain resistant overcoat or windbreaker and you can still enjoy Juneau rain or shine.

In Juneau, we walked up and down Main Street, had lunch at the Twisted Fish restaurant, and then walked along the waterfront watching boats sailing and pontoon planes taking off!

Juneau is the capital city of Alaska, located in the state's Southeastern region, with a population of about 30,000 and an area bigger than Rhode Island or Delaware. It has been the capital of Alaska since 1906, when the government of the then-Alaska Territory was moved from Sitka.
One of the interesting things about Juneau and Alaska is the effect on public life of being such a geographically large state. The state legislature, for instance, takes telephone testimony during its committee hearings.
See in Juneau, Alaska
================
Alaska State Museum, 395 Whittier Street, ☎ +1-907-465-2901 (fax: +1-907-465-2976), Open year round: May-Sept, daily 8:30AM-5:30PM: Oct-Apr, Tu-Sa 10AM-4PM. One of Alaska's best exhibits covering the breadth of the State's history, native cultures, wildlife, industry, and art. Approximately a ten-minute walk from the Cruise ship Terminal. Adults: May-Sept $5, Oct-Apr $3: children 18 and under free.
Saint Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church, 326 5th St., ☎ +1-907-586-1023 (fax: +1-907-465-2976), Tiny ornate octagonal structure was originally built by the Tlingits in 1893. When the Russians were still in Sitka 50 years earlier, Father Ivan Veniaminov of the Russian Orthodox Church translated the Bible into Tlingit. Thus this building became southeast Alaska's oldest continuously operating church. $2 entrance donation.
Alaska State Capitol, 4th Street and Main Street, M-F 8:30AM-5PM: Sa-Su 9:30AM-4PM. Completed in 1931 as the territorial Capitol, this building does not have the typical imposing architecture of a State capitol. Today this Capitol building, remodeled in 2006, houses the State Legislature, the Governor, and the Lieutenant Governor. Extensive exhibit of historic photographs in the hallways. Complimentary 30-minute tours are available from mid-May through mid-September. Free.
Mendenhall Glacier This is a massive 1.5 mile wide glacier calving into its own lake, located about 13 miles north of downtown Juneau. To get there, you may take a bus or taxi from where the ships dock to the Mendenhall Glacier Recreation Area. You can pay the driver in cash or buy two tickets at one of the many kiosks on the dock. A taxi ride is about the same cost as a bus if you have 5 or more passengers.
Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center, 8510 Mendenhall Loop Road, ☎ (907)-789-0097 (fax: (907)-789-6643), May-Sept: 8am-7:30pm daily; Oct-April: 10am-4pm Thurs-Sun. Although you can't get right up to the glacier, you can get a great view of it from the visitors center, which is operated by the US Forest Service and is very informative. Photo Point Trail and the salmon, bear and Steep Creek Trail are easy and accessible trails. In August and September, black bears, often with cubs, visit Steep Creek to feed on spawning sockeye (red) salmon. Some trails may be closed then. A series of viewing platforms let the bears walk underneath the many folks watching them fish. No food or soft drinks are allowed in the recreation area, and dogs must be on leash. If you want a moderate hike through some beautiful forest, try the East Glacier trail which loops around east of the visitors' center. Follow the trail clockwise to avoid having to climb many steps -- you'll come down those steps at the end of your hike and to keep the best views of the glacier ahead of you, instead of over your shoulder. $3 fee for visitors center from May to September. Activities outside the center building itself are free of charge, and visitors may use the restrooms and visit the bookstore without paying the fee.
Mendenhall Glacier West Glacier Trail - For the more adventurous, the West Glacier trail which leads directly to the glacier (you can walk on it, but be careful to stay away from crevasses!) and also to a look out. Get off the bus just past the Mendenhall Glacier Campground stop. The stop is called Montana Creek. Walk up the road to the car park at the end (around 2km) and you will see the trail-head. Stick to the path, maybe dropping down to the lake side to checkout the icebergs and grab some photos. Continue along the path, across several bridges and up some switchbacks with fixed cables. Soon you will come to fork in the path, the left is steep and heads to the lookout, the right goes downhill into some dense vegetation. Shortly into the right-hand trail you will come across a shelter slightly off the track. Continue for several miles along the track, taking care on the slippery rock areas.
Alaskan Brewing Company Brewery Tour, If you head down to the Alaskan Brewing Company headquarters they will give you a tour/talk and free tasting of some great beer. A good way to end a day of hiking. To get there, jump on the bus and ask the driver which stop to get off at. Walk across the road and turn at the second right.
