Holgate Glacier, Kenai Fjords National
Park, Alaska
Holgate Glacier is another offshoot of the
Harding Ice field. It was the destination of the one-day cruise we
took The glacier calves frequently, sounding like gunshots as pieces
break off and plunge into the sea. The black bear we saw swimming
was near hear- he was apparently trying to get around the glacier and was
unable to do so on land.
