Parents\/guardians: Please inform your youth with motorcycles and small motor bikes that the Mendenhall Glacier Recreation Area is off limits to these types of vehicles. I encountered a group of five boys (about 12-14 years old) on motorcycles along Dredge Lake Road as they were headed into the rec area. After telling them that riding there was illegal, they said “they didn’t know that.” Let’s help them out with their perceptions and keep the area for usages that are less detrimental to the trails. Presently the Forest Service, Trail Mix and the Juneau Mountain Bike Alliance are working on improving trails and bridges along the lakes. Thank you for helping our young ones be good citizens.<\/p>\n
