Glacier Bay National Park
Glaciers creeping down mountainsides exposing Earth’s geologic processes, meltwater falls crying sediments into deep fjords, seals floating on current-swept icebergs – this is but one equilibrium captured in a voyage deep into the mountains of coastal Alaska.
Bald eagles hanging high in a headwind talon-dueling, mountain goats tiny pearls strung up in alpine meadows, sea lions kinetically piled, tufted puffins’ golden locks and the three little bears scampering after their mother – these are some of the endearing and improbable creatures we discovered on our day’s adventures.
Blocks of hundreds of year old ice caroming down the face of a crumbled frozen dream, arising from the crashes reborn as icebergs to a reverberating ricocheting thunder – these are vibrant processes that return water molecules from the heavens fallen solid on mountains to the seas.
Tlingits, Cook, Vancouver, Muir, rangers, scientists, conservationists, kayakers, expeditions guests – so many people have been inspired by the vast beauty of the icy mountains and adjoining ocean. National Park, Preserve, World Heritage Site, International Biosphere Reserve – Alaska’s Glacier Bay is all of these, yet something much more to everyone who visits.
