Glacier Bay Pictures

PDF Map of Glacier Bay Park

I was pretty sick Sunday morning, so I missed most of the ride into Glacier Bay.  At first it didn't look all that impressive, and we picked up a couple of park rangers/guides who gave a rather monotonous monologue over the ship's PA system while we were in the park. But after we got past Roberts Island, and entered Johns Hopkins Inlet and went on to Tarr Inlet, it was magnificent.  MK took most of the calving sequence pictures, since I was still pretty out of it.  I managed to take a couple of digital video shots as well, which I hope to put up here eventually.

We kept waiting for this one to split off...
