We spent the first morning of our expedition exploring Endicott Arm. This magnificent fjord is the perfect example of the ecological transition that takes place after glaciers recede and give space for many forms of life. All this happens in chronological order, and we can read the mountains like an open textbook that show the history of this ecosystem. We can learn how this landscape was sculpted by glaciers that are mostly gone and see some of the wildlife that inhabits this remote corner of the earth.
