Salmon Glacier and Pizza Party

Since we didn't see any bears yesterday and since we haven't gotten any pictures of the bears we have seen, I thought that I would include a photo that was taken by Lance and Gisela who are on the caravan with us.

Today we caravaned in our autos/trucks up to Salmon Glacier. On the way we saw some abandoned gold mines.


There were also lots of waterfalls on the way up.



The higher we got the more snow we saw.


Salmon Glacier is one of the largest glaciers and it is absolutely beautiful.
The glacier gives off a fog and a mist most of the time.

When you are at the top you can't see the bottom.


On the way back down we saw more waterfalls.

This is the bottom of the glacier.

This is a pond on the roadway to Salmon Glacier.

You can see a variety of colors in the glacier.

After our trip to the glacier, we met at Sealaska Inn for a pizza party. Our Wagonmaster, Spike, on the right, and our Tailgunner, Jack, put on a short skit for us.

All of the pizza was hand made and was wonderful.

We filled the room.


A good time was had by all. Tomorrow we head to Deese Lake.
