Hiking the Chilkoot Trail

Thursday, May 4, 2006
Mountain Zone is always a great source for news, information, and ideas for all kinds of outdoor fun. Today they posted an article on hiking the Chilkoot Trail in Alaska. While the trail itself is only 33 miles long, relatively short compared to some of the epic trails, it winds it's way through some historic sections taken by pioneers during the gold rush. The scenic trail passes hanging glaciers, snowfields, and rocky terrain in what sounds like a short, but very sweet adventure. Who wants to hike this with me? :)
