Wrangell
The voyage through the inland waterway continues on to Wrangell... many times referred to as 'Wrangell the Beautiful.' Wrangell is one of Alaska's oldest towns, dating from the time the United States purchased the territory and established a military post [Fort Wrangell (1866-1877)].... Alaska Steamship Company
Shortly after leaving Wrangell the ship steams through Wrangell Narrows... For two hours the steamer cautiously threads its way through this winding, twisting, nature made channel, with shores so close on either side it seems possible to toss a stone ashore. Transiting Wrangell Narrows always will be remembered as one of the many thrills of an Alaska trip. Alaska Steamship Company
