Hawaii is overrated! The beautiful rudgedness of Alaska is like nowhere else on earth. Aaron and I over a lovely Christmas break of hosting Aaron's parents and Christmas dinner decided to take the ferry over to Juneau for 4 days for a good old fashion Alaskan vacation.
Now if you like snowboarding Juneau ski mnt. is the spot right now with currently the biggest snow base in North America. The resort is maintained by the city and it is not only affordable but it is dream to carve in the fresh power. So some of our time in Juneau was spent on this snow mountain, but our favorite part of our trip was our backcountry crosscountry skiing adventure! 13 miles of hiking and backcountry skiing over lakes and to cabins and descending mnts. and crossing narrow bridges returning just as the moon fully took over as the main source of light reflecting on the snowy mountain side. We did a poor job of properly documenting this vacation but this is what we've got for now. I'll included also some Christmas day photos! Happy New Year all!
