Nice views of the surrounding mountain, forest, creek and wildlife. Possibilities to hike toward Nugget Glacier by following the creek. This hike is difficult and the route hard to find at time. Very nice view of the glacier. Wonderful views of the meadows and the snow covered peaks and some old relics of Victor Spaulding mining activities.
Bears are common in the area.
Juneau B-2 Trail head same as Spaulding trail, intersection of trail after 0.8 mile. Wonderful views of the meadows, the snow covered peaks and the clear water creek. Bears are common in the area. Juneau B-2 Trail head behind Glacier Valley Elementary School, off Jennifer Drive. Spectacular views of Mendenhall Glacier all along the way.
