Juneau, Alaska

A state capital with no road in, and a glacier at the edge of town.

Juneau is Alaska's capital, squeezed between Gastineau Channel and steep mountains. No road connects it to the rest of North America, so everyone arrives by sea or air. Mendenhall Glacier is 12 miles from downtown, and humpback whales feed in the nearby channels all summer.
