Exploring Anchorage

Today we got acquainted with the city. After a short drive through the city, we headed out to Arctic Valley. This is a ski and hiking area with beautiful views (see picture below). We all got out and hiked over snow and tundra for a couple of hours which was amazing! While up there it began to snow, completing the atmosphere of the hike.
After leaving Arctic Valley we headed back to downtown Anchorage. The city is nice and not too big so walking around was no problem at all. Between all the shops to look in and the mountains or water surrounding the city we were pretty occupied for a few hours. We even found a few bears around to hang out with :)
