Valdez

We left Palmer, Mountain View CG, and took the Glenn Highway to Glenn. Twists and turns, some construction and rolling frost heaves, rain and drizzle. Nothing to really say much about.

On Monday we went to Copper River to pick up our mail and make a stop to the Wrangell-St Elias NP visitors center.  This is a very nice  VC with plenty of space for RV parking.  As it has been for several days it is rainy and cloudy so no views.

The following day we pulled pack into the VC to take a picture or two,

We continued on to Valdez and ...

We arrived at Eagles Rest and got all set  up and made reservations for a Glacier Tour for the next day. I had taken a look at the Alaska Tour Saver and forgot that was one that we could have used a bogo but since this was the only we would have used there would not have much been a savings.





The tour was well done and included a light lunch. The weather was overcast but that brought out the blue in the glaciers. We saw Sea Otters doing what they should outter, Sea Lions in their man caves and a reported of a blow of a Hump Whale. The narration of the cruise was very informative and since this is a small ship you could talk with the captain while on the bridge.

More pictures will be on our online album.
