Juneau is the state capital, the third largest city, and cannot be accessed by road.
Mendenhall Glacier is the most visited glacier in the world and is the easiest glacier to get to. It is located twelve miles from downtown Juneau.
Like other glaciers in Alaska, it is retreating, losing more than 100 feet a year. Large chunks of ice calve into Mendenhall Lake.
