Mount Alyeska is a mountain in the Chugach Range in Alaska. The mountain is used for a ski resort most of the winter you can't always climb up it in the winter. Once near the summit when you are at the top of the tram there is a Restaurant and bathroom. It is quite a scramble to the summit when you get to Chair 6. It is a great fun hike with excellent views.
