 Old Cabin by kaloz
The original townsite was near the Girdwood Station Mall, but was moved because it was in the flood plains of the Tunagain Arm, and got flooded at high tides. Today there is a shopping area off the Seward Highway near the old townsite. They "filled" the land, though at big water, it can come close to the roadway. The new townsite is further from the plains in a forested patch and closer to the mountain. Leave a Comment

The tram takes visitors to the top of Mt Alyeska. The tram operates in the summer and year round, with the exception of October and May. Leave a Comment

 Icicles in the sunlight by kaloz
So prepare for the worst, then enjoy what we have to offer. The temperature on the mountain while I was a atop was -2 F. I had on a sweater and a jacket (unzipped). The sun was shining and it was lovely.
Even if you are not a skiier, ride the cable car to the top, you can enjoy some great scenery, watch the skiiers, and enjoy some hot chocolate. Leave a Comment
