Originally a hunting camp, now a tourist destination.
Five floatplanes (10 passengers each) leave Juneau, flying over glaciers and wilderness to "land" on Taku Inlet. At the lodge, a meal of King Salmon or chicken, a talk on the interesting history of the lodge, a walk through the woods, possibly encountering some black bears, and the return flight by a different route.
Note that the name under which the site is listed on the NRHP and the plaque do not agree, but trust me, it is the same place.
