The Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show

One of Ketchikan’s most popular attractions is an hour-long, family-friendly show that celebrates the skills and strength of professional Alaskan lumberjacks. Cheer along as the ax-wielding woodsmen compete in events such as tree climbing, ax throwing, logrolling and wood chopping, with a healthy dose of showmanship thrown in for good measure. The show is only a block from the cruise-ship dock and there are up to five performances daily during the summer season.
