Diva Goes Ashore in ALASKA
Sights to see & things to do
 Misty Fjords National
Monument
~ Alaska
Stretching
north from the Canadian border, the 2.3 million acre Misty Fjords
National Monument is a majestic area of forest-covered rugged mountains
punctuated by cascading waterfalls. Named
for its climatic conditions, precipitation tends to soften the distant
views which appear as though under a constant mist.
Only small ships venture far into the waterways of Misty Fjords;
larger ships pass the southern tip and head northwest to dock at
Ketchikan.
Diversions
Find
a spot at the ship’s rail to view the passing scenery and don’t
forget your camera and binoculars. Even
though they include no glaciers, for a better look at the beauty
of Misty Fjords,
flyover sightseeing tours are extremely popular.
The majestic beauty of the sparkling fjords, waterfalls, and
rugged tree covered mountains are capped by landing on a serene lake in
the wilderness.
Cool
Cruising-- Spring! It's
in the air and cruisers' fancies turn north. North to Alaska, with
thoughts of majestic scenery, frontiers to explore, and what to
pack.
