An Unforgettable Experience Treading on Thick Ice in Juneau Alaska
Visiting a glacier is an experience unlike any other in the world. Mendenhall Glacier in Southeastern Alaska is located only 13 miles from downtown Juneau, the state capital. The glacier is part of the Juneau Icefield, which is comprised of 38 interconnected glaciers and covers over 1,500 square miles. Its proximity makes it an easy visit for tourists who want an once-in-a-lifetime experience. It’s possible to visit the glacier by car, boat, or even on a helicopter trip that offers a chance to trek across the ice. It’s an opportunity to experience a fantasy world in real life.
