Flattop Mountain 2010-08-10

A quick afternoon hike in Anchorage, AK
Published Aug 14, 2010 GMT
 
Did this hike for some quick stress relief after a day at the hospital in Anchorage.  Round trip with a moderate push was around an hour, maybe less.

Round trip is 3.4 miles, for about 2,600 feet of total ascent + descent.

Great views of Anchorage and both Arms of the Cook inlet.  Some interesting ridgelines above for future hikes.  Moderately crowded.
