This live camera looks at the Mendenhall River close to Juneau, the capital of Alaska. It is a good way to check how the river and surrounding landscape look right now, before you plan a walk or a trip. The page also shows local time and the current weather.

About the Mendenhall area

Juneau sits on the Alaska panhandle, reachable mainly by air or water because no road connects it to the rest of the state's network. The Mendenhall River flows from the Mendenhall Glacier, which is one of the best-known glaciers near the city. The landscape combines glacial valleys, spruce forest and steep mountain slopes, and the air is often cool and damp. The city is known as a gateway to the Tongass National Forest and to the Inside Passage cruise route.

What to watch on the camera

The view is most interesting in the long daylight of summer, when the river and surrounding slopes are fully visible for many hours. Weather changes quickly here, so clouds, rain and mist can shift the scene within minutes. Autumn brings colour to the trees and a chance to see the river running higher after rain. Since the frame depends on its exact position, check the live player for what is currently in view.

Practical information

Summer, roughly June to August, is the most popular season for visitors, with mild temperatures and the longest days, though rain is common throughout the year. Winters are cold and wet, with heavy snowfall in the mountains. Nearby cameras on this site show the Eagle Camera, the Auke Lake campus of the University of Alaska Southeast and the JPH campus view, all within a few kilometres. The Mendenhall Glacier itself is about five kilometres away.
