Reviews
"Very good lookout point, and a memorial point of the Purchase of Alaska, very pleased to be there!"
"Historical site with great view of Sitka. You need to use stairs to come here."
"This was a special hike to a special place. There were no cruises in this day so we had the whole hill to ourselves. Bald Eagles flying all around us and beautiful blue skies were abundant. The views were spectacular and we took out time taking them in. The history and the energy of this hill was intense. So much happened here. If you’re in town, visit. Enjoy."
"When visiting Sitka, this spot is a must! Located up a small hill behind the city, you'll have breathtaking views of the mountain range and water, including Mount Edgecomb (when it isn't hiding behind clouds)! Also available are informational plaques telling you about the rich history. Stairs and well-marked path are available."
"If he was beautiful, and the information was fantastic. For such a small place it has a very robust and interesting history. Well worth a walk."
