5/25/08 We disembarked and headed to Mendenhall Lake National Forest campground. We found a beautiful spot and registered for two days. We biked around the lake and saw white water rafters preparing to raft down the river. We then headed to Mendenhall Glacier. Wow. It is just so amazing. We went to the visitor center, then walked right up close to the glacier and Nugget Falls. This is a city visited by cruise ships every day, so the area was packed with cruising tourists.
Today we visited downtown historic Juneau and then came back, got our bikes and rode through the rainforest greenbelt. Tomorrow we will drive up the Glacier Highway, then depart on the ferry for Haines. The weather has been beautiful. It is supposed to stay nice tomorrow for our trip to Haines.
