Misty morning, Glacier Bay National Park
Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve commands a glacier-crowned, maritime wilderness that stretches northward from Alaska’s inside passage to the Alsek River, encircling a magnificent saltwater bay. To the south and east, the landscape fragments into the timbered islands and winding fjords, while to the west, the Park’s pristine outer coast opens to the Gulf of Alaska, and the Pacific Ocean beyond. A mountain-guarded, maritime sanctuary, Glacier Bay National Park ecures the coastal flank of the largest internationally protected area on earth.
