Access Issue: The Eklutna Canyon drainage is private property owned by Elkutna Corp.
Details
Eklutna specifically states climbing is not allowed on their property. This has been an ongoing issue for many decades. Please leave no trace (no bright tat, limit bolting, do not leave fixed lines anywhere including the overland approach, and do not cut down trees on approaches) and, in general, keep a very low profile and climb at your own risk.
Description
Eklutna Canyon is a very popular place for ice climbing in Alaska. The climbs require around a 30-45 minute hike to reach. The hike is easy. You simply descend the hill to the river then follow the river until you reach the climbs. Usually footsteps are visible the whole way. There will be climbs and mixed routes on both the north and south sides of the canyon. The climbs range from WI2-WI4 and 10m to 70 meters in length.
