5 years agoGreat hike. Only made it 1.5 miles before a larger creek turned us back with my little kids. Easy enough for my 3 year old. River was high so flooded in a couple of spots but easy to get over

5 years agoGreat hike with fantastic views. You will cross some creeks and deal with mud but it is worth the hike.

4 years agoNice easy hike along the river a few up and downs, but nothing to drastic, beautiful trees and views, bike and horse friendly, but Feds have already restricted E bikes, this tends to be a trend. Bring along a filter water bottle, lots of spots to get water along trail. Nice blue berries along the path. Enjoy the wilderness.

5 years agoResurrection River Trail is a beautiful hike through the mossy forest of the Alaskan Coast. Enjoy glorious waterfalls and majestic glacial views as you traverse the trail. While the hike is mountain adjacent there no large elevation climb. The only issue is the occasional stream running through the trail. Such a gem in the way to Exit Glacier.
