paramagic Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 May be moving up this year, I've spent several years in Anchorage/Girdwood but don't know much about Juneau. Anyone have first hand experience in this town? Curious about the usual ie: climbing, skiing, etc- but also the vibe, housing, culture, schools for when we have kids...

John Frieh Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 By chance are you a chopper or bush pilot? Never lived there but I know a few SE AK climbers if you need a partner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoastBastard Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 There is a good bagel shop - Silver something bagels. And a pretty decent bookstore. Public library is nice. It's a small town, like a minuscule seattle, or bellingham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wfinley Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Juneau is a wonderful small town that has a great community. Unlike any other AK town can pretty much walk everywhere (and great trails lead into the mountains right from town). It rains a lot but friends who live there wouldn't trade it for any other place in the world.
