Le Conte Bay & Petersburg
Our Zodiac zips off to where the National Geographic Sea Bird dare not follow, and we stare into the faces of ice formed, impermanent gods. The flotsam of a behemoth in the distance, unreachable by foot or by sea. Its refuse dwarfing our little boat, silently foreshadowing the greatness beyond.
Admiration interrupted by a soft call on the radio, a bear sighting pulls our attention elsewhere. Trading photographic subjects, we creep to the shoreline to spy upon the lone black bear.
Fast forward a few hours, and I’m flying straight into the heart of the beast. The vastness is unfathomable. As massive as the icebergs were, they gave no indication as to the greatness of their mother. Flowing white lava frozen in time, deliberate harbinger of erosion painting the alien landscape and dictating the shape of mountains. I kneel before your awesome power, glacier, and pay homage to your patient might.
