Today we’re getting closer to one of Alaska’s most precious treasures, Glacier Bay National Park & Preserve. We’re enraptured by the legends of an Alaska native from the Huna Tlingit tribe. We’re mingling with a park ranger who points out the incredible wildlife and gives us a real understanding of Glacier Bay’s history.

Oh, Frosty the snowman was alive as he could be, And the children say he could laugh and play just the same as you and me. Thumpety-thump-thump, thumpety- thump-thump, look at Frosty go! Thumpety-thump-thump, thumpety- thump-thump, over the hills of snow!
