College Fjord

We entered College Fjord on Tuesday morning around 6 a.m. College Fjord is the home of 16 glaciers named for Ivy League Colleges that sponsored the Harriman Expedition in 1899. I took the liberty of renaming one glacier after UIC. As we entered the bay we first noticed drifting ice chunks. Some of this floating ice was as big as a house.

Tomorrow: Glacier Bay
