On our trip to Valdez, we saw several views of the Alaskan Pipeline. It is over 600 miles starting in Prudoh and ending in Valdez. The oil is then shipped out to other countries.
We have seen many, many glaciers on our travels. This was the most spectacular to me. It's name is the Worthington Glacier.
We see many, many waterfalls coming off the glaciers. This is Bridal Veil Falls. Rightly named. So beautiful. I had to stand back a ways to get the whole falls in the picture.
Just around the corner from Bridal Veil Falls is Horsetail Falls. That's me standing in front of it. It's amazing how much water comes off the mountainsides. Alaska prides itself on its bountiful supply of fresh, clean water.
We finally made it to Valdez. It's main industry is from the harbor. Many fishing charters, kayaking and watersports.
What beautiful scenery! Thanks for sharing it with all of us.
