Tracy Arm Fjord

As we started our journey back to San Francisco, we stopped and sailed through the Tracy Arm Fjord. A Fjord is formed when a glacier cuts a U-shaped valley by ice separation and abrasion. The Tracy Arm Fjord ends at a glacier. We entered the Fjord at 5am and turned around at the glacier at 8am to head back to open water. The water was so brilliantly blue and green, it was breathtaking. There were large pieces of the glacier that had broken off cluttering our way through the Fjord. It was so beautiful and peaceful. We dragged some lounge chairs out to a balcony on the back of the ship and just sat in awe.
