Driving south on the Richardson Highway towards Valdez. It was smokey, so view not what it could be. From the motorhome in front of us, you can get an idea of the size of this hill...'scuse the bugs on the windshield!
Worthington Glacier just outside Valdez. Back "in the old days" when we came to Valdez (say 25 years ago or more) you could walk right up to the glacier. I was shocked at how far back it has receded. Maybe Al is on to something....
distant waterfalls....
Mountain shot for Becky...
Closer up of the waterfalls...
Bridal Veil Falls on the edge of Valdez.
It was a bit hazy in Valdez, but we were really lucky to have no clouds here! If you look closely at the bottom of the hill across the water, those round things are part of the pipeline terminal. Valdez is where the pipeline ends and the oil gets shipped out from here. The terminal is across the bay from the town.
Part of the Valdez Harbor.
Princess Cruise ship in dock.
It's a big foggy today, so I don't know if we'll stick around here or where we'll end up tonight....
Thanks for the mountain shot! :)
