Today we sailed into the Wrangell Narrows and tied up at the pier in Petersburg, Alaska. We had a full day to explore this unique small town and its surrounding environs. The economy is driven primarily by fishing, and we saw boats come and go all day long. The patriotic spirit of the residents was evidenced by the holiday festivities in the best American traditions: food booths, hotdog eating contests, and even a dunk booth to support the local Little League team. There were multiple options to explore the forests and muskegs around town, offering a chance to stretch our legs and learn more about the local environment.
