Mendenhall Glacier and Lake, Juneau, Alaska – Image 2492

The frozen Mendenhall Lake is a winter play land for Juneauites. With motorized vehicles prohibited, the frozen surface provides unbelievable opportunities for skating, cross-country skiing, strolling and glacier gawking. On this day, my wife and I counted over 200 cars in the parking lot and down the access road. It seemed if everyone we knew was taking the opportunity to stroll through the icebergs frozen in the lake. This image illustrates the month of December in the 2007 Juneau Alaska calendar.
