Located just fifty miles south of Alaska's capital city, Juneau, the spectacular fjord of Tracy Arm is comprised of
Yosemite-like granite rocks, countless waterfalls, glass-smooth water, and mountain peaks rising more than 5,000 feet.
The "arm" itself penetrates 30 miles into the Alaskan wilderness, bending between near-vertical mountain chasms thousands
of feet tall. Waterfalls cascade from spruce and hemlock-forested valleys. As our ship meandered slowly around bend after
bend, the Sawyer Glacier, one of the state's biggest glaciers, comes into view wedged at the end of Tracy Arm. A true high-light
of our journey with spectacular view after view, just another day in Alaska.
