One of my favorite destinations to return to on the Wild Alaska Escape expedition is the small fishing town of Wrangell. The reason I love Wrangell is simple: there are many wonderful activities for our guests to enjoy. A group and I joined a jet boat tour along the Stikine River. It was very exciting to navigate up the river at fast speed, shifting and turning, avoiding rocks and logs. We had amazing landscapes in all directions including waterfalls, valleys, and Rock Castle — yet the most impressive view of all was Shakes Glacier. We were able to navigate near this receding tidewater glacier for amazing photos.
