A trail that pampers you

Ben Grussendorf forest and muskeg trail in Starrigavan recreation area

After the stairs on Herring Cove trail, my knees loved this flat trail. Parts of the trail where it went over bogs and marshes, the trail was a low wooden boardwalk, parts covered by a thin layer of tar. Most of it seemed wheelchair accessible. This part of the Tongass forest is dominated by muskeg and coastal grass land. It was a clear and cool day.

Start of the estuary trail, bridge on Starrigavan creek. Fewer salmon compared to Indian river.

One of the several benches to enjoy the coastal grass of the estuary.
The estuary trail connects one inviting sitting/viewing area to another. To a seeing eye, one can supposedly see signs of logging. All I saw was a dense understory under spruce, hemlock and cedars.
