Scenery Cove, where we anchored near the Baird Glacier. Early the next morning we found ourselves surrounded by a school of colorful kayaks as they paddled by us. It was a bit surreal as we had thought we were alone! They had camped at the head of this cove.
Ice berg in Holkham Bay, at the entrance to Tracy Arm.
Humpback in Frederick Sound. There were so many of them, most not as close as this one. We turned our engine off for a while to drift though, and we could hear the whales breathing all around us. We also spotted a sea otter with her two kits - they crawled all over her as she swam along. We also saw what was unmistakably a shark fin that crossed in front of us. We assume it was a salmon shark, which are fairly common up here. It was a bit creepy to see.

Great photos! We also saw Orcas 3 days in a row at Wood Point and Spurt Point in Thomas Bay!
