On the lookout for salmon - a photo on Flickriver

            I lived in Alaska for many years but moved Outside in early 2013. This was my first trip back since then. It was bittersweet - Alaska, especially Anchorage, seems to have changed and not for the better. We also hit some ugly weather - one week of rain, cold, and gloomy skies. Bummer. However, we did take a Kenai Fjords cruise out of Seward on the only nice weather day we had. I'm in love with glaciers and this was a great cruise. The waters on Resurrection Bay were smooth as glass, the scenery was incredible. The captain took us to see an active pod of Orca whales before heading up Aialik Bay to sit at the base of Aialik Glacier. We saw some calving action but I was too slow with the camera to capture it. On the way back to Seward we stopped by a small waterfall and sea lion colony - pretty cool but the smell was nasty. We definitely need to go back to Alaska again in the near future!

I took these photos in mid-August 2018.
