More Ketchikan, 07.04

We spent the 4^th of July hiking around Ketchikan’s neighborhoods. The city is built into the side of some really steep hills. As a result, not only is it about 10 blocks long and only 2 or 3 blocks wide, but also many of the public right of ways are just wooden staircases! They're marked just like the more conventional streets, and they connect all the neighborhoods that are built up the slopes.
