Glaciers, Glaciers, Everywhere!!















Burns, Middle and Bryon Glaciers are found in beautiful Portage Lake. We made a visit to Begich-Boggs National Park to admire the glaciers and icebergs of the lake. The scenery once again is breathtaking!



Parts of a breached iceberg still floating.
I have already found a new adventure for my next trip to Alaska, the Portage Glacier boat tour. Next year Madelyn will be old enough for the ride to 26 glaciers and icebergs, including the Byron Glacier that you can actually walk on.


Middle Glacier





















Burns Glacier is a valley glacier.

Portage Lake Glacier--loving the cold weather!


I was beyond giddy to see snow and glaciers in June!!!



The top picture is the trickling of the waterfall the ends in a rushing cascade of the bottom picture.
