Pacific Temperate Rainforest
Fairly strenuous several hour hike up the East Mendenhall Glacier Loop and Nugget Creek Trails, near the Mendenhall Glacier just south of Juneau, Alaska.
Such beautiful steep slopes of untouched temperate rainforest, with giant Sitka spruce and western hemlock. Everything is covered with deep, thick moss, over giant granite boulders.
Enchantment such as this, you almost expect to see mythical Pan ducking in and out, or little fairyland creatures from 'The Dark Crystal'.
