Alaska Adventures Part 2

One of the cool parts of the cruise was getting to take the boat through what they called the Tracy Arm, which is basically a passage through a glacier.  It was awesome!  We were cruising through giant mountains!
 Floating in the water were icebergs and the boat just sailed on through them.  They say that the icebergs are only 8-10% outside of the water....which means there is a whole lot of ice floating around down there!

In Skagway we took a train ride up to White Pass (the route the gold miners took when they came to mine)
 There were some gnarly wood tressels.
