Yesterday I took a boat tour into Kenai Fjords National Park and visited the amazing Northwestern Fjord.  It had been a few years since I had visited this part of the Park, and I was glad to see the ice hadn’t receded too much, nothing like what we have seen at Exit Glacier.  For comparison, the above photo is the right hand portion of the glacier that you see in this 6 year old photo of Northwestern Glacier (by the way, Alaska Magazine did a really nice double page spreed with this photo in this months issue!).

I am so lucky to live next to such amazing country!  The Travel Channel calls the coast of  Kenai Fjords National Park one of the top 10 natural wonders of the world – for good reason!

Special thanks to Cathy Gonzalez with Log Dreamin’ Bed and Breakfast for helping with my arrangements!
