The Valdez Glacier lies almost forgotten just outside the port of Valdez (south-central Alaska). At the end of the 19th century, the glacier was used by fortune-hunters as an All American route to the goldfields in the heartland of Alaska.

The rest of the glacial lake is perfect for a kayak trip between the icebergs calving from the glacier. In a double kayak we made an unforgettable trip between large icebergs and ice caves whilst enjoying the open views.
