Nature’s Beauty

The beauty of Juneau is in its remote location, and being able to see trees, mountains with native flora. There are no buildings, highways or smog marking this breathtaking landscape. Alaska’s capital sits on the panhandle at the base of Mount Roberts. Disenchantment Bay
The mist moving in over Disenchantment Bay is wondrous, an area named by Alessandro Malaspina in 1792 when seeking the legendary Northwest Passage. “Puerto del Dessengano” extends southwest for 10 miles from the mouth of Russell Fiord to Point Latouche.

North to Alaska

Team members Sean and Tony have cruised to one of the most arresting spots in the US for summer vacation. The intense heat of the east had them traveling north to cooler temps. Nestled into the southeast portion of Alaska lays 16.7 million acres of the Tongass National Forest, a temperate zone that is home to many species of animal, and where you may occasionally catch a glimpse of rare flora. Managed by the US Forest Service the area encompasses the Alexander Archipelago; glaciers, fjords, and peaks of the Coast Mountains.

Natural beauty abounds with jaggedly rugged mountains; fjords that are aesthetically pleasing steeped in cliffs with a narrow inlet, glaciers of dense ice constantly moving under its own weight, and forest which stretches for miles.

The boys took the helicopter excursions that landed on the glacier and where they were able to hike the alpine tundra,  love their photo’s.

Travel stylishly,
