On my last day in Cordova, day five, I packed my camera, water, and some food and headed for the Power Creek Trail.
The trail is 4.2 miles long and ends at the Power Creek Cabin . Along the way, I stopped to photograph the beaver dams and lodges--and to sample the wild Alaska blueberries. The end of the trail was worth the long hike. The cabin was beautiful, and faced towering mountain peaks. From the covered deck of the cabin, I could only sit back and marvel at the mountain scenery. After returning to Cordova, there was still enough time for a short hike along the Heney Ridge Trail. The trail begins on the edge of the Orca Inlet near Bluff Pt at Hartney Bay and winds through dense forest. For the photographer, using a tripod is a must for taking sharp photographs in the dim light. I was particularly interested in photographing the mosses and mushrooms on the forest floor. The hike ended my 5-day summer vacation in Cordova. |
