Pictures!

Here are pictures from both the Juneau to Wrangell and Wrangell to Ketchikan leg. They are in no specific order (it is hard to organize pictures on this website). We will follow soon with a worded update about the last leg of our trip, it is just easier to do an all picture post and an all word post separately.

Pushing the tram with all of our stuff across the mile long portage to Fool's Inlet

Dragging, lifting and floating our boats trying to beat the dried out high tide to get out of Fool's Inlet

Rocky coastline

Heading to retrieve the tram on the portage

Us

More coastline

Black bear, just near where we wanted to camp...

Sunset on "Porcupine Island", named so because Kelly saw a porcupine on the beach

Watching humpbacks put on a show in the 5 1/2 mile crossing of Stephen's Passage that we completed the next morning


Coming into Wrangell, you can see the divide between water coming out of the Stikine river (the lighter color because of all the sediment) and the water coming out of the back passage


Rockweed and waves enough to take a rest day

Getting into Ketchikan, cruise ships are biiiiiigggggg

View of Ketchikan from our window in the historic New York Hotel

Bull Kelp, clouds and calm water
