Course: Stephens Passage > Auke Bay (north of Juneau)
We were debating skipping Juneau and heading south to Baranof Island and Sitka instead, but Juneau won out because we may not come up this far again. It is only a day away. Leaving Tracy Arm we still have to watch out for icebergs in Stephens Passage.

This is a nice marina a little outside Juneau just buzzing with fishermen. Looks like if you don’t like to fish, you shouldn’t live here. The people are not as friendly as they have been in other Alaskan stops, but we think that is because they are to concentrated on their fishing. Someone else said it was because none of them are from around here, they are all tourists like us!
