The trip up Tracy Arm was very interesting and the scenery was spectacular. The views of Sawyer and South Sawyer Glacier were impressive as the ship wound its way through the ice near the front of the glacier. On the way out of the fjord, near one of the many large waterfalls that run down the sheer cliffs of Tracy Arm, a black bear was spotted. The bear was eating the mussels and barnacles from the intertidal zone, and barely noticed us as the ship approached. Great views were had by all as the ship moved close to the cliff.
