Anchorage, AK

So today on the 8th day of our trip we saw many things we saw Glaciers and more mountains with snow on them. First we went on a tour to see Glaciers and Ice Burgs and we saw lots of both. We saw Portage Glacier the biggest one on the lake. It’s 1/2 a mile long and 300-400 feet thick and it takes 10 feet of snow to compact for 10 years and then it makes 1 foot of ice so portage glacier has been around for 10-15 thousand years. Then later we went to Ship Creek were we saw salmon from a viewing platform. We saw Chinook salmon or black salmon and Sockeye salmon or red salmon. Tomorrow we are planning on going gold mining. Remember to check the blog again for more tomorrow updates, and sorry I don’t have any pictures of the fish.
