ALASKA HIKING GUIDE 2027

Picture yourself on a granite ridge at eleven o'clock at night, still in full daylight, with Denali rising across the valley. Alaska can give you days like that, but only if you understand how this country works: how far a mile really is, when the high passes finally clear of snow, how to cross a glacial river safely, and what to do when a bear is on the trail ahead.

No GPS? No problem. With this book, you'll always know what's ahead before you ever leave the trailhead.

Alaska Hiking Guide 2027 is a practical, honest companion for hikers who want to experience the state's mountains, glaciers and coastal wilderness on foot. Written in a warm, first-person voice, it pairs clear route descriptions with the planning details most visitors only learn the hard way.

Inside this guide you'll discover:

• Denali National Park's front-country trails and its vast trail-less backcountry, including what the 2027 return of bus service beyond Pretty Rocks means for your trip
• Exit Glacier and the demanding climb to the Harding Icefield in Kenai Fjords National Park
• Classic Chugach summits above Anchorage, from Flattop and Wolverine Peak to Bird Ridge and Twin Peaks
• Lost Lake, Resurrection Pass, Portage Pass and the rainforest trails around Girdwood
• K'esugi Ridge and Byers Lake in Denali State Park, with some of the finest views of Denali anywhere on the road system
• Hatcher Pass alpine lakes, the glaciers and copper mines of Kennecott, Kachemak Bay's water-taxi trails, and the historic routes of Juneau and Skagway
• Multi-day planning for K'esugi Ridge, Resurrection Pass, Crow Pass and the Chilkoot Trail
• Ready-made 3-, 5-, 7- and 10-day hiking itineraries
• Six full-page trail maps with step-by-step walking guides for the most popular routes

Trail descriptions include distances, elevation gain, seasonal conditions, trailhead access, and safety advice on wildlife, weather, river crossings and glacier hazards. You'll also find the small details that make a day go smoothly: where to park, when to start, and when to turn back.

Whether you're planning your first trip north or returning for the high country you missed last time, this guide will help you choose the right trails, plan realistic days and hike Alaska with confidence.
