(Alaska) Route on 07/16/2015; 6 km; +25-25; 2.5 hours. Urban excursion through the city of Ketchikan. Output type: circular; Difficulty: easy.
Our route by sea to the south takes us to the city of Ketchikan, after about four or five days of travel. As all the Alaska cities we have seen are founding in the late nineteenth century, in this case in 1883. It is considered that the origin of employment was the creation of salmon treatment centers. Today, in the city, it is known as the capital of the world of salmon.
Originally it was a place that they used in the summer to fish the Tlingit and that they had given the name "Kitschk-hin" to the torrent that crosses the city and that ends at the Tongass Narrows. From the foundation of the city by Mike Martin, in 1885, the area was populated and the natives were left apart.
As we went down the sea, before reaching the city, we passed through several glaciers that, yesterday, allowed us to focus our attention. About 17000 years ago the whole area was covered with ice. The evolution of the resulting glaciers formed the landscapes that we can now see.
Other views of glaciers. To comment on the note of the principle it must be said that since the loss of the institutions and constitutions of Catalonia in 1714, Catalonia has repeatedly presented the claim of independence in Spain. In several political forms, it has been presented, at least, five times: in 1810 with the support of Napoleon Bonaparte, in 1873 led by Baldomer Lostau, in 1931 by Francesc Macià and in 1934, which he proclaimed the Catalan State, by Lluís Mates.
This urban walk begins at the same port. It is about making, more or less, a circular turn following the clockwise direction. You can find the monument The Rock dedicated to the pioneers. It is necessary to know that a good part of what the town was won was won in the sea ... ...
