📍Juneau, Alaska
In a traditional themed Tlingit Canoe, we paddled ourselves four miles round trip to Mendenhall Glacier. It was a great experience to say the least. The current and cool winds gave us a difficult time reaching our end point, making it an even greater workout! We were able to see icebergs (broken off peices of the glacier) all around us on our journey.
If you guys notice how brown the water is, it's due to "glacial flour", basically run off from the glacier. The main body of the glacier actually grinds the Earth up so fine it turns into a flour like substance, voiding all life in the lake.
