ALASKA PORTS OF CALL

GLACIER BAY NATIONAL PARK This incredible Biosphere Reserve features frosted crags descending into mossy forests and a 1,500-foot-deep (457-meter) fjord. Stone, ice, and water continue to collide, sculpting a dramatic landscape that is the crown jewel of southeastern Alaska’s natural wonders. HAINES Nestled along a scenic fjord, Haines is known as a haven for artists and nature lovers, and is home to the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve, where the world’s largest gathering of bald eagles occurs each year. The memory of prospector days lingers on with opportunities to pan for gold, while the Indian Arts gallery, with its totem-pole carving studio, offers a glimpse of an even older Haines. INSIDE PASSAGE Alaska’s Inside Passage is a protected network of waterways that wind through glacier-cut fjords and lush temperate rain forests. Arguably one of the greatest cruising routes in the world, the Inside Passage offers opportunities to spot some of Alaska’s most iconic wildlife, with humpback whales, bald eagles soaring overhead, and brown bears lumbering on the shoreline.

Sailing into Sitka today, you’ll still see vestiges of Russia’s influence, including the unmistakable onion dome of St. Michael’s Cathedral and the Russian Bishop’s House, both National Historic Landmarks. SKAGWAY At every turn, you’ll find yourself immersed in gold rush lore, from the infamous Red Onion Saloon that still keeps a pistol that Wyatt Earp left behind en route to the Klondike, to the White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad, a classic narrow-gauge railway that traverses rugged mountains and passes cascading waterfalls and towering glaciers as it connects Skagway to Whitehorse deep in the Yukon.

CosmosVacations.ca 15 North America is home to a world of majestic and fascinating wildlife—from the great whales of the oceans to the grand beasts of the plains; from regal birds of prey to agile mountain sheep.
