Deer Mountain, Mountain summit in Ketchikan Gateway Borough, US.
Deer Mountain rises 1500 feet above Ketchikan, featuring dense forests, natural rock formations, and multiple hiking paths through the Alaskan wilderness.
The mountain trails were established in the early 1900s by local residents seeking routes to connect different parts of the Ketchikan community.
Native Tlingit people maintain strong connections to Deer Mountain through traditional hunting practices and seasonal food gathering activities.
The main trail to the summit spans 2.5 miles with markers every quarter mile, requiring approximately three hours for a complete round trip.
During winter months, the mountain receives heavy snowfall, transforming the summer hiking paths into routes for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.
