This was the home of Judge James Wickersham until his death in 1933. He was the first territorial judge and he "walked the length and breadth of Alaska four times bringing law and order to the territory". This is a quote from Ruth Allman, the judges niece and sole survivor, who lived in the house and gave tours for many years. She was famous for her aurora borealis waffles (she lit a sugar cube soaked in vanilla). It is a great place to go while enjoying a walk in the older neighborhood.

You can see bears, mountain goats, large granite boulders and best of all the glacier. You do not want to miss this while you are here.
Mt. Robert's Tramway yields breath taking aerial views from about 1800 feet up Mt. Roberts. Take the tram up, and if you're wanting a hike, hike the rest of the way up the mountain (perhaps up to the cross, or up to the peak if you want to go hard.) There's a restaurant up there and a giant gift shop. The views are the big reason to go up!

Peaceful, beautiful and so very quiet. Walk the labyrinth, see the views and enjoy the sounds of nature. We have been to many beautiful weddings in the historic stone chapel.

This by far our favorite tour. Board the Captain Cook for a full day cruise to Tracy Arm, one of the World's Great Fjords. The inland sea is jade green and the icebergs blue is beyond description. Granite walls reach to the sky, waterfalls spiral from above bears, mountain goats and seals can be seen along the rocky shore. When you get to the Sawyer Glaciers you will experience sights and sounds you will never experience again
