Well it's getting closer and closer to the end of our summer season up here in Skagway, Ak and like last summer Brian and the rest of the Dock Reps went out on a campout. This year they went Heli-Camping (where a helicopter drops you off at the top of the trail). They went up that way and then back by the train the next morning. 
It was a great time, after getting a quick ride in the chopper up to the Laughton Glacier trailhead they hiked up to the US Park Service cabin. Then it was off to the Laughton Glacier. It's a pretty sweet hike that almost immediatly has a visual of the massive sheet of ice. More than the chopper ride, or the hiking on the glacier, the best part was just to be away 
from town (and tourists) for one night.
