2007 NRT Photo Contest/Perseverance.jpg
Perseverance National Recreation Trail, Juneau, AK. Photographer: Catherine
Horiuchi. Photographer's Notes:" This photo was taken 07/23/07 a
half mile above the Last > Chance Mine Museum (on the National Register
of Historic Sites). I received a trail map at the Visitors' Center in
the Juneau Convention Center while in town just for the day, along with
some 9,000 other cruisers. What was so striking about this trail was its
accessibility, within easy walking distance, and quality of trail bed,
that is, even though there was heavy mist and some rain, the trail was
not muddy or slippery, not too steep, and wide enough for even an out-of-towner
to feel comfortable hiking in the limited visibility."
