Alaska Mountains

We have driven by hundreds of mountains in Alaska, and can testify that each one has its own special charm. That’s why we keep taking photos of mountains.

The tallest mountains are for viewing only. People climb them, but we are not up to challenge. We hike instead up other peaks and ridges to see glaciers, lakes and tundra.

If you like mountains, too, look below to see some of the beauties that we found this year.

Just over this green mountain ridge, the Sheridan Glacier spreads out towards the Copper River outside Cordova.

An old mining trail in Hatcher Pass led us to a receding glacier.

Across from the Kenai Peninsula, a volcano rises up in the Alaska Range.

Mount Blackburn in the Wrangell-St. Elias National Park is the fifth-tallest mountain in Alaska.
