Our final day aboard National Geographic Quest began with a cruise through Tracy Arm - Fords Terror Wilderness Area. Our morning destination was South Sawyer Glacier at the end of the fjord. These glaciers shaped the inside passage as we see it today. In a sense, sailing to the terminus takes us back to the beginning. The glaciers and ice we travel through are reminders of nature’s majesty and strength. Awe is inevitable. The team aboard National Geographic Quest pulled out all the stops for this voyage. We concluded the trip with a surprise visit to Five Finger Lighthouse, a fantastic dinner from chef Paul Cotta, and the guest slideshow. Thank you all for a memorable week here in Southeast Alaska.
