Gear up for a wilderness adventure on the Takshanuk Mountain Trail aboard a four-wheel drive Kawasaki "Mule." Your tour begins with a short drive to the Takshanuk ("land of falling waters") trailhead. Here, you'll learn how to operate a Kawasaki "Mule," an automatic-transmission, four-wheel-drive vehicle. Crystal waterfalls and creeks greet you on your way to meadows at the 1,500-foot elevation. Spectacular views of mountains and forests abound, including a panoramic view of the Lynn Canal and Chilkoot Lake.

On the way down, you'll stop at an exclusive mountaintop lodge to enjoy a warm fire and a fish and chicken lunch and freshly baked cookies. After descending the rest of the trail, you'll board your motorcoach for a scenic ride along Lutak Inlet back to the pier.
