It isn’t very often that the clouds part in Southeast Alaska, but we are ecstatic when these rare days line up with Glacier Bay Day! Along with some impressive calving from Margerie Glacier, the bay treated us to a rich array of wildlife including numerous species of seabirds, humpback whales, sea otters, and Steller sea lions. We finished the day with hikes in Bartlett Cove near the park headquarters before heading west for the Inian Islands.
