GLENN HWY TO VALDEZ
July 11 - 13, 2016
Gorgeous drive to Valdez through Keystone Canyon, with 2 beautiful waterfalls.

We stopped at a fish hatchery where hundreds of salmon were trying to fight their way through the weir to spawn upstream. The seagulls, eagles, sea lions were there for the feast. I guess we missed a bear by just a few hours.
This eagle decided to take his lunch up into a tree to eat in peace.
This is a replica of a fish wheel used by native people for centuries. Modern ones are still being used today and can be seen in the rivers along the highway. In the background is a cache, used to store food and supplies along the trail. I still think an industrious bear could get in.
