Hikers, climbers and more casual sight-seers flock to Denali National Park hoping to clap eyes on North America's big peak, Mt. Mckinley, and maybe a grizzly cub or two.
0.5 miles from Mink Bay to Hugh Smith Lake. The trail is an easy hike with one steep hill traversed by a series of switchbacks located at about the midpoint of the trail. At the lake a hiker can observe Alaska Department of Fish Game biologists working at a fish weir conducting a sockeye salmon population study. Trout and salmon fishing in this system is considered to be excellent. No skiff is provided on this lake.
