Trip to Washington & Alaska last year
My second trip to Alaska and my wife's fourth. We started in Seattle and stayed near Mt Rainier then flew to Juneau and did Mendenhall Glacier and Admiralty Island (with the highest concentration of brown bears in North America) then flew to Anchorage and did Matanuska Glacier, Columbia Glacier (out of Valdez) and all the glaciers in Blackstone Bay near Portage.
