Ice Breakers
Valdez Small Boat Harbor is icing up, though probably will not become unnavigable due to occasional ice breaking by harbor staff.
However, it is the individual boat owners' responsibility to break ice around their own boats.
Occasionally, fast ice will lift dock pilings out of the water with tidal changes from 15-20 feet (4-6 meters), damaging the docks and sometimes boats.
