Cloudy skies over the Sawyer Glacier
Small sight-seeing boats joined us up the fjord
Pretty as a postcard
This waterfall was frozen
Lower part of the falls
Getting towards the end
Another postcard view
A sight-seeing ferry
Glacier water give the fjord a pretty color
Many passengers came out on the bow today
Another type of bird
Turning the bend
A smaller boat for viewing
Day trips can come out of Juneau
Another unidentifiable duck
Small boat move faster than us
Turned the corner
A melting bergie bit
A patch of green in the granite
Running like a faucet
Follow that boat
A comfortable way to travel
Scenic at every turn
Two boats ahead of us
Starting to see more ice
Was not as cold as it looked
Large glacier
More water
More ice
Larger icebergs
Looking for harbor seals
Seals like to come up fjords to escape predators
Some blue color in this one
Bet it is cold up high
Verdant slopes
Sawyer Glacier in the center
Much more ice in the water
Glaciers actually move towards the water
Small boat dodging the ice
Sometimes this ice will freeze over
Larger bergs on the banks
There has to be some seals here
Some of the ice was dirty with glacial sand and rock
Can we go any further?
Yes, but carefully
Look what we saw……a harbor seal
We could see the seal moving
Sunning on the ice
Only saw one
Looking for more seals
Large ice now
Good thing they are near the banks
Could be seals on these
More threads of waterfalls
Looked cold
Green
These bergs were moved away from the ship by the side thrusters
Perfect reflection
Rocks of ice on top
But no seals
Floating quietly
These did not stop our sailing
Growing sideways
Unusual growth
Taller peaks
More ice
Looked like a seal
Large bergie bit
We did hit a few of these
Birds, not seals
This can freeze over at night
This will block our passage
