Our annual
Summer Solstice trip brought us to Tracy Arm/Ford's Terror Wilderness
Area for paddling amongst the floating ice. We visited North and South
Sawyer Glaciers in Tracy Arm with our guests for the week, George and
Polly, celebrating their honeymoon aboard Ursa Major.
George
and Polly are seen here relaxing in the Alaskan sunshine in Frederick
Sound, where an enthusiastic group of 25-30 humpback whales joined us
for lunch. While George and Polly enjoyed Alaskan B.L.A.T. sandwiches
on the sundeck of Ursa Major, the humpback whales were observed feeding
via single bubble net.
George and Polly spent hours on the bow of Ursa Major photographing
wildlife such as humpback whales, Dall’s porpoise, Stellar sea lions,
harbor porpoise, harbor seals, and a wide variety of birds.
