Most of Glacier Bay was buried under thick glacial ice 250 years ago. As we traveled 60 miles north into the bay today, we found abundant animal life ashore and in the water. We observed Steller sea lions, humpback whales, puffins, sea otters with pups, mountain goat nannies with tiny kids, and even sleeping brown bears. We also observed an unusual blond wolf foraging in the intertidal zone.
