Indian Peak
May 02, 2012 11:44PM
Last night was Indian Peak. The "trail" started at Mile Marker 104.5 of the Seward Highway. There is not really a trail but instead mountain goat and moose trails straight up the ridge. We even included some heavy bushwhacking before we got above the treeline. This hike was about 3 miles roundtrip with over 3,000 ft. elevation gain. It was directly across a valley, and almost the same elevation, from the Bird Ridge Peak I posted earlier so it was cool seeing that from a different vantage point. Pictures below:

Most stopped at the bottom of this ridge but two of us hiked up just a bit:
