Alaska Part 4 - Tracy Arm Fjord



These photos don't come close to capturing the scale and overwhelming silence of Tracy Arm Fjord.  We were up at 5am, on the deck, as the captain guided the ship silently through the fjord.  At one end of the fjord you have the Sawyer glacier with dozens of seals and seal pups hanging out on the freshly calved icebergs.  It is hard to judge the size of the glacier from these photos, but the face of the glacier is over 100ft high.
