As expedition leader aboard an expedition cruise ship I am usually busy planning and preparing onboard, or leading trips out in the field. However, every once in a while I will join an organized tour in a port. It just so happened that I had a little time to get off the boat for one such tour in Haines, Alaska.
Haines is at the very top of the famous Inside Passage. It was a photo tour of the surrounding countryside. The landscapes in Alaska are something that dreams are made of. Early in the season there are also wildflowers that can add a splash of color to the scene as well.
Check out the glacier carved lake and beautiful Haines.
Chilkoot Lake. Absolutely breathtaking.

Can you think of a more relaxing place than this?
All I need is a kayak to head out on this lake.
Hope you enjoyed this walk around town.
