I did 4 salmon seasons in the fishing industry there years ago. Got to see some of the darker sides of people being stuck in that place. While there are good people there, the town empties out a lot in the fall and winter time to a gloomy environment. A lot of drinking to pass the time. You'll notice that there is a bar on every block if not several. Beautiful place to visit in the summer time.

Is rocky the minor in question? Also, the historical museum used to be the old library. I spent many hours down stairs in the back watching the small KC waterfall. It was one of the most peaceful places I can think of.

Ketchikan was great on our 8/28 cruise. But, we do not recommend the duck tour. It was just boring. The salmon run was amazing. Wanted to have a King crab leg but at $130 per leg, we skipped it.

Thanks for the information. I'm really surprised that you made no mention of hiking in the rainforest. I guess it was not promoting a business so wasn't worth it idk.
