A view looking SW from Mt. Alyeska across the Turnagain Arm at low tide toward the Kenai mountains.
"Turnagain Arm was named by William Bligh of HMS Bounty fame. Bligh served as Cook's Sailing Master on his 3rd and final voyage, the aim of which was discovery of the Northwest Passage. Upon reaching the head of Cook Inlet, Bligh was of the opinion that both Knik Arm and Turnagain Arm were the mouths of rivers and not the opening to the Northwest Passage. Under Cook's orders Bligh organized a party to travel up Knik Arm, which quickly returned to report Knik Arm indeed led only to a river.
Afterwards a second party was dispatched up Turnagain Arm and it too returned to report only a river lay ahead. As a result of this frustration the second body of water was given the disingenuous name "Turn Again".

Taken in Hillock Wood, Buckinghamshire, before the storms we had earlier, this tree with arm aloft stands among the wreckage of some of its neighbours. Having briefly visited the site after the storms I was expecting carnage, but all seemed to have survived, ready for me to explore more when the mist returns.

Es war Winter, und es war kalt. Schnee war viel zu wenig. Dennoch freuten sich Kinder und auch große Kinder. Sie bauten einen Schneemann - mit dem was da war. Der Schneemann stand, er hielt dem Wetter stand, er hielt dem sich ankündigenten Frühling noch lange stand - bis er letztendlich doch verschwand. Was blieb, das diente Vögeln zum Nestbau. Nun ist nichts mehr schmutzig und grau. Die Wiesen grünen, Blumen blühen, und oft ist auch der Himmel blau. So ist der Gang der Dinge.
It was winter, and it was cold. Snow was too little. Nevertheless, children and big children were happy. They built a snowman - with what was there. The snowman stood, he withstood the weather, he withstood the approaching spring for a long time - until he finally disappeared. What remained was what birds used to build nests. Now nothing is dirty and gray. The meadows are green, flowers are blooming, and often the sky is blue. Such is the way of things.
Newhaven Harbour, East Sussex. Waves from the open sea on the other side crash over the harbour arm during a storm.
At low tide, the shallow sea is almost empty. A water roller rolls at 20 to 25 km / hour into the silt at high tide. The silt is very dangerous because of drifting sand. In this bay Captain Cook had to turn back in his quest for the northwest passage. The bay got the name Turnagain Arm.

Alaska Railroad Train 120S bound for the barge in Whittier is seen hustling along the Turnagain Arm just south of Beluga Point behind a trio of the railroad's geeps. With two of the three remaining as delivered black geeps in this consist, this made for a memorable chase from Potter Marsh down to Portage.

Tracy Arm Fjord in Southeast Alaska is pure, untamed wilderness magic ❄️🌊✨
This stunning 30+ mile-long narrow fjord, carved by ancient glaciers and part of the vast Tracy Arm-Fords Terror Wilderness within Tongass National Forest, delivers jaw-dropping drama: sheer granite cliffs soaring up to 4,000 feet, countless plunging waterfalls misting the air, emerald-jade waters dotted with brilliant blue icebergs, and at the head, the twin Sawyer Glaciers (North and South Sawyer)—tidewater behemoths that calve with thunderous "white thunder" roars as massive ice chunks crash into the sea.
Naturalist John Muir called it "one of the most dramatically stunning fjords of Southeast Alaska" and likened it to a "wild, unfinished Yosemite." Harbor seals lounge on floating bergs (especially pups in safety), bald eagles soar overhead, and you might spot humpback whales, sea lions, bears, or mountain goats along the rugged shores.
Most visitors experience it via scenic cruising on Alaska Inside Passage itineraries (smaller/mid-size ships navigate the tight turns best) or full-day boat tours/excursions from Juneau (about 45 miles south). Ice conditions can shift plans to nearby Endicott Arm and Dawes Glacier, but the beauty remains epic either way. Best in summer (May-September) for milder weather, active calving, and wildlife—though layers, rain gear, and binoculars are musts!
Pro tip: Book a smaller vessel tour for closer glacier approaches and fewer crowds—it's one of Alaska's most unforgettable, pristine natural spectacles.
Waaaaaay back in the day Edward lost his left arm and it was replaced by a mechanical one (see bottom right). Back then it was one I made myself and I had to use invisiprims to hide the arm underneath.
Fast forward to the amazing results available with mesh and bento. This superb item was given away as a freebie at the Engine Room event by [ContraptioN] who have been creating amazing steampunk related stuff for years now.
