The steep Lazy Mountain Trail reshapes you. It stretches tendons going up. The climb is 3,000 feet in less than two miles. The first half moves through cottonwoods, aspen, spruce, birch, and tall fireweed. At about 1,500 feet in elevation the trail crosses into alpine tundra and offers sweeping views of the Knik and Matanuska Rivers. A picnic table awaits here at the halfway mark. Summiting Lazy at 3,720 feet gives magnificent views of the Chugach and Talkeetna Mountains.
