Alaska trails · Bubb Creek Trail
A 11.6-mile out-and-back in Alaska, with 1,920 ft of climbing.
The climbing leans toward the middle third: 52% of the ascent falls between mile 3.9 and mile 7.8. It gives back about 1,903 ft along the way, so it rolls rather than climbing steadily.
On August 31, 2026 — the day this page was generated — first light reaches this trailhead at 5:48 a.m., the sun rises at 6:37 a.m. and sets at 9:03 p.m., and the last usable light fades about 9:52 p.m. (AKDT) — 14 h 26 min of daylight. At about 2.7 mph plus 30 minutes per 1,000 feet of climbing, the 23.3-mile round trip takes roughly 10 h 33 min, so leaving the trailhead at sunrise puts you back around 5:09 p.m. — 3 h 54 min before sunset.
