The Granite Tors
June 5th, 2008
This was an absolutely amazing hike, which no one had even recommended to us! Future visitors of Alaska, consider it recommended now. Perhaps it was just the weather that day, but it’s one of my favorite hikes I’ve ever been on. It’s a 15 mile loop that we read about in our handy Alaska Atlas and Gazetteer which leads to more tors like Angel Rocks, but much larger and more pronounced ones. The hike itself is fairly nondescript, up one burned ridge to the tundra, past the tors, and down another ridge back into the burn area. I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves, and highly recommend this hike anyone looking for a long day hike or an easy overnighter near Fairbanks.
