Volunteer with SEAL Trust on May 12

Mendenhall Wetlands Sunset Join SEAL Trust on Saturday, May 12 at 9:30 am for a couple of hours of trash pick up on our Mendenhall Wetlands properties. SEAL Trust is working to protect this amazing local resource, but we need your help to preserve it. This event is in partnership with Juneau’s city-wide Litter Free, Inc. Cleanup Day.

We will provide garbage bags and snacks. Meet at the Sunny Drive pullout, which you can access from old Glacier Highway. You can park in that small lot or along the street. If you have any questions, please give us a call at 907-586-3100 or send us an email at setrust@ptialaska.net.

Help us keep this wonderful place clean and beautiful!

SEAL Trust properties now available in Google Earth

Have you wandered through the flowers at the Jensen-Olson Arboretum or hiked through the Herbert River wetlands? These properties provide accessible recreation for Juneau residents. Now, no matter where you are, you can explore all of SEAL Trust’s easements through Google Earth! Each property in the Google Earth file below has information on its boundaries, its public access, and its conservation values. Did you know, for example, that our remote Kake Gunnuk Creek easements were established by Congress to protect Kake’s water supply? Or that our Sitka Crescent Bay easement provides coastal access as well as protection for anadromous fish?

Take a tour through Southeast Alaska and learn what SEAL Trust is doing to protect the lands you cherish!

Download instructions and the Google Earth file at Box.net.

Note that if you don’t already have Google Earth you will need to download it from here: earth.google.com/
