Eklutna Lake – July 14-15/2009

Tuesday, July 21st, 2009

On July 14th, we drove down the Glenn highway past Palmer and camped at Eklutna Lake Campground in Chugach State Park about 30 miles from Anchorage.  We saw kayakers on Matanuska River.

Â
Eklutna Lake is 7 miles long and a mile wide. It is very silty from the glaciers that feed it. It provides drinking water for the Anchorage area.

We paddled the Lake and loaded our kayaks with driftwood for our camp fire.
