Looking
down in valley fog and windows made picture taking very difficult |
|

A
ride on the train and you soon see sharp corners allowing you to see the
front of the train from your seat. See the Chilcoot
Valley and imagine carrying 2 tons of supplies up from the bottom over the
top - IN WINTER! See the sharp drop off the rail line and sparse |

Short
clip of scenery as seen from train window as we ride along the Chilcoot. You can see the track on the other side of the
valley where this train must wind around to make its way down to Skagway,
Alaska |

|
We
drove to Valdez to take a boat cruise and on the way
we drove through a really narrow pass called Keystone Pass |
|
|
Another
often photographed site is "Bridal Veil Falls" |
|
|
We
saw many glaciers but some closer than others from the road - here is "Bear
Glacier" |
|

We
spent 2 evening at "Fish Creek" waitching
for bears to come and catch fish . They did come but
my video did not turnout of the bear catching a fish .
Here we see a salmon swimming in the really clear
water |
