Being the Tourist in Kanger

Some updates from Kanger.  I have added some new photos over on the Mike's Feet Picasa site as well as two movies of the LC-130s.  I hope you enjoy them,

Well now, on to the fun stuff.  One of the most frequent questions I have gotten is what do you do in Kanger.  There are several answers I can give, depending on how much time you want to spend here.  My personal recommendation is as follows:

1) Go to the Russell Glacier.  On my last trip through Kanger, I was fortunate enough to take a day trip out to the glacier tongue.  It was spectacular.  Located about 16 miles outside of town and can be reached fairly easily by car and a short hike.  I have a photo over on the Mike's Feet Picasa site of what it looked like close up.

2) Take day hikes.  This area is surrounded by mountains, hills and are easy to climb.  It is difficult to get lost around this area if you remember which direction the fjord is.  I have spent many hours climbing the area around Kellyville, located about 9 miles outside of town.

That's about it.  If you spend any more time in Kanger, you will get bored.  The only place that I can think of that was similar for me was Fort Sumner New Mexico.  That's saying something.

I have one request .... Leave me comments.  I love them and it gives me something to do.
