Jul 06, 2018 - National Geographic Quest
The day begins as Kevin Skeek, our Hoonah Tlingit Cultural Interpreter, and Christina Martinez, our National Park Ranger, board National Geographic Quest at 5 AM in Bartlett Cove. After a stop at Marble Island to view numerous seabirds, bald eagles, sea lions, and even a humpback whale, we make our way along sixty miles of the glacially carved fjord system to “up-bay,” where we visit the mountain goats of Gloomy Knob and the icebergs of the John Hopkins Glacier.
Lynn is a marine biologist and underwater photographer whose passion lies in the intertidal zone. Lynn’s love of the ocean began when she was just four years old after experiencing a tide pool for the first time, and she received her first scuba certification immediately after graduating from high school. Her interest in photography also started when she was a youngster, shooting black and white film with an old box camera that her mother found at a thrift store.
