Special Weather Statement issued April 10 at 3:26PM AKDT by NWS Juneau AK
A system moving across the Gulf will send bands of precipitation sweeping into the panhandle beginning late Sunday afternoon for most of SE AK, and early Sunday morning for Yakutat. Yakutat is expected to see some snow mixing in early Sunday morning, before transitioning to rain during the daytime. Sunday night into early Monday morning, temperatures will cool enough that some snow may be able to mix in across the northern panhandle. Any snow accumulations for most areas near sea level are likely to remain less than an inch. Although it is a more unlikely scenario due to the warmer temperatures, the possibility of marginally higher accumulations (1 to 3 inches) cannot be ruled out at this time. What snow that does fall is likely to be wet in nature.
About
Point Bridget State Park encompasses 2,850 acres of stunning Southeast Alaska wilderness on Lynn Canal, 40 miles north of Juneau. Created by the Alaska State Legislature in 1988, the park offers meadows, cliffs, spectacular views, salmon spawning streams, rocky beaches, and coastal rainforest. The park provides three backcountry public-use cabins: Blue Mussel Beach Cabin, Cowee Meadow Cabin, and Camping Cove Cabin, each accommodating up to 8 people. The Point Bridget Trail system covers approximately 8 miles, beginning with packed gravel that descends into rainforest muskeg. About 1.4 miles from the trailhead, hikers encounter beaver meadows with unique wetlands. Horse Meadow features spectacular wildflowers peaking in late June. The trail continues to Cowee Meadow Cabin, where a short planked trail leads to scenic shoreline. Blue Mussel Cabin lies another 0.8 miles through forest paralleling cliffy coastline. Cedar Lake sits 380 feet above sea level, accessible via a more primitive trail section. In winter, the meadows and open forest provide excellent skiing and snowshoeing opportunities. The park offers outstanding wildlife viewing, particularly bears during salmon spawning season from June through October.
Directions
From Juneau Airport, take Shell Simmons Drive to Glacier Highway and turn left. Continue on Egan Drive which becomes Glacier Highway. The trailhead is located at milepost 38.5 of Glacier Highway, approximately 40 miles north of Juneau. Also accessible by boat via Lynn Canal to Amalga Harbor or Echo Cove.
