We entered Glacier Bay National Park on Wednesday June 25, 2003 and spent a good portion of the day there. It was truly one of the marvels of the world as you will see from the pictures below. One our way out of the bay while traveling to Skagway, AK which was our first port-of-call, we encountered several Humpback whales, another incredible wonder of nature!!

The dirt seen in the picture is caused by the glacier expanding up and pushing the mountain out
