We Made Real Progress this Week

We were able to leave rainy/windy Petersburg Monday morning and headed to Wrangell with an easy transit through the Wrangell Narrows.  On Tuesday, we left Wrangell and cruised 10 hours and made it all the way to Meyers Chuck, one of our favorite spots from our trip northbound.  Doing that, we passed Ketchikan altogether and avoided the large numbers of people from the cruise ships.

After Meyers Chuck, we spent our last night in Alaska in a fantastic anchorage, Foggy Bay, which  was new to us.   

It was raining a bit when we arrived but soon cleared enough for us to sit outside and enjoy our final night in Alaska on the aft deck.   The setting provided a perfect spot to reminisce about how much we had seen and done during our time in the "Great Land."

 It became very still and cleared considerably in the late afternoon.
