As we left the Anchorage to head to Valdez the group took an opportunity to thank the host at our B&B.

The trip to Valdez is about 300 miles but we had ample opportunities to stop and take in the views.

Just before stopping at the Matanuska Glacier we stopped at a state recreation area to get a closer look at the glacier.

Students have taken photography lessons from Professor Calisch to heart. Here Peter Guiden gets a new perspective on the landscape.

Media Center Specialist Adam Bowen records a little footage of the mountain range.

Getting a drink from the crystal clear and very cold glacier water.

Jake Bolinger has the glacier on one side and mountains on the other. Not a bad view.

Feeling the texture of the glacier silt/mud along the glacier.

Grabbing some quick lunch after the hike.

At some points during our drive the snow covered mountains and the snow filled clouds converged making it difficult to know where one ended and the other began.

One last stop at the Bridal Veil Falls before getting to Valdez.
