Description
Encountered this awesome view while hiking out of Eagle River, Alaska. The trail was easy, nice and wide, and this bridge was provided for crossing the creek.
Many of the people who live in this area work in Anchorage, a mere 15-minute drive away, but love to play in the mountains. Eagle River in particular is well suited for that as one of the principle gateways to Chugach State Park, the third-largest state park in the country at 773 square miles. Running east from the community is Eagle River Road, a 13-mile ribbon of pavement into the heart of the Chugach Mountains that makes for a stunning side trip. The winding road skirts the Eagle River to the joy of rafters and whitewater enthusiasts
