Harbor Mountain Trail

Today, myself and a few other guys from the base decided to hike the Harbor Mountain Trail. We couldn't have asked for a better day to do it.  The weather was perfect!  Clear skies with the temperature in the low 40s.  As we made our way up the trail (approx. 600'), the trees broke, the sun showed itself, and we had an absolutely breathtaking view of Sitka Sound.  Amazing. We spent so much time taking pictures and hanging out that we didn't even get very close to the summit.  We had to turn around and head back down.  No complaints on this end, though.  The view alone provided great pictures!  All in all, a great little trek.  I'm really in awe of the terrain surrounding Sitka.  What a blessing it was to have the opportunity to spend 4 months here!  If you have a Facebook account, you can view the rest of the photos on my published albums.

Awesome! Is that you climbing that tree with No hands in pic#2? Or a double-back flip south while your snowboard goes north?

Very funny...it's Gabe (my roommate) doing a backflip down the hill. Probably my favorite picture of them all!
