Views while arriving in Kodiak

In these two pictures, you can see the view of Kodiak (pop. ~6000) while flying into the airport. The hill behind Kodiak is about 800-1000 feet tall (called Pillar Mountain), and taller mountains are behind that.
















Upon landing, I took some pics of the mountains surrounding the airport. As you can see, many of them still have patches of snow. Also, I have since learned that many also have trails on them. Barometer Mountain, shown in the last picture, is about 2300 feet tall, and has a trail going up the left ridge.
