Our Hike Up the New Road

When I first moved to Metlakatla the town was building a road heading North on the island towards Ketchikan.  Construction was finished finally in about September.  Matti and I decided to take advantage of some sunshine this last weekend and hiked up the steep road.  Here are the photos from that walk!  :)

Can you see the eagle?

The ice was finally starting to melt!

We were wondering if this was Wolf poop.  We think we were too far down the road for a dog to have done it.....who knows though!
