  • Holgate Glacier was just breathtaking!! Probably the most incredibly gorgeous views I have ever seen. We took a 6 hour day trip cruise from Seward. So very worth the beautiful voyage to this magical place!
  • We took an overnight to the Public Use Cabin here - phenomenal! The cabin was clean, secure, and the scenery was absolutely breathtaking. For transportation, we used Joe Allen of Allens Alaska Adventures. We would absolutely hire him to take us out there (or adventure anywhere in the area) again! He was absolutely awesome. Consider going for a couple of nights and/or adding in a kayak trip (we did!). Enjoy.
