Exit Glacier is one of the few glaciers coming off the Harding Ice Filed that empties onto land, in this case just a few miles northwest of Seward, Alaska. The Harding Ice field is a vast stretch of ice burying the mountains in the center of the Kenai Penninsula. I didn't find any depth information, but from the elevations of the peaks peaking up through it, there are places that must exceed 1000 ft (330m). It is the source of the glaciers flowing into Resurrection Bay on the east side and the Cook Inlet on the west side of the penninsula. These glaciers are in fairly rapid retreat due to the warming climate.
just looking around at airports makes for some interesting subject matter....

37667 exits the lime light and hands the batten over to 40145 who will lead the southbound Stacation Expresses on the last day of the 2020 season, The 40 is sitting on the head of tomorrow's southbound ECS ready to go in the yards at Appleby.
Myself, Rich,Jim and Gav had witnessed the loco swap and shunting manoeuvre and managed to get a few shots in the bag....somehow.
Hopefully 2021 will see the return of this venture. Thanks RCS.

..... Society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me
Society, crazy and deep
I hope you're not lonely without me....
"Society" song by Eddie Vedder
The other day I was listening to this song and a picture popped up in my mind (which happens a lot while listening to music). You're looking at the result now :-)
"it's not my choice to be here, there's been little room.
I've never found an exit, I doubt I'll find one soon."
Puffins have solid bones (unlike other birds) to withstand the pressure when they dive up to 250 feet to catch fish! As a result, they are not the most graceful flyers. I heard them described as flying like you attached wings to a football!
sometimes one just wants to leave reality and get some rest. step back and think about things… step back to see clearly.

A park visitor stands in the exit tunnel of The Lewis and Clark Caverns in Montana. This 538 foot tunnel was the most significant accomplishment of the Civilian Conservation Corps during their time at Lewis and Clark Caverns during their 1935-41 stay. The exit tunnel allows visitors to exit the cavern without having to turn around and retrace the tedious route back through the cave. The cave entrance and other historic roads and facilities are part of the Lewis and Clark Caverns Historic District listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2018.
Geologically the Lewis and Clark Caverns are located in a group of carbonate rocks called the Madison Limestone which is Mississippian in age. The caves formed at the base of one of the units of the Madison, the Mississippian Mission Canyon Limestone. There groundwater flow was perched above a less-soluble unit of the Madison called the Lodgepole Limestone. Because the beds were inclined, the CCC dug the exit tunnel in the Lodgepole Limestone straight back until it reached the caves in the Mission Canyon.
exciting exit 😊
