Watching the bears

As we enter day two of three (maybe even four?) clear warm sunny days, we lay at anchor waiting for the thick blanket of fog to dissipate in the main channel.

We awoke to clear skies in our anchorage, with the cottony tongue of fog only two miles away- between us and the glaciers on the mainland.

We will depart Seymour Canal on the NE side of Admiralty Island today bound for Tracy Arm across the way as we continue our intentionally slow progress toward Juneau.

It is likely the grizzlies are also still there, harvesting salmon in preparation for their impending winter nap… We have seen many bears this past few weeks in most of our anchorages.

We know that soon these severe clear weather events won't be nearly as warm, so we are enjoying this while we can…
