Juneau

Juneau Harbor from our balcony

Day4

We had a full day in Juneau. We were able to walk into town twice. Once before our tour and once after. Our tour was to the AJ Mine/Gastineau Mill. This mine was one of the most modern in it's day but unfortunately the quality of the ore did not live up to the initial assay and it never made a profit. There was a real miner giving the underground portion of the tour who really knew his stuff. We were able to do some panning and managed to get some flakes of gold to bring home. Fun Stuff!!  The ship departed for Skagway at 8:30
