Pictures taken in the little fishing town of Seward, Alaska, which sits right on the waters of Resurrection Bay, on the Kenai Peninsula.

Seward has a wonderful Sea Life Center with beautiful sea life creatures. Here’s pics of a few of them.

This pic is of Mt Marathon where runners race up the mountain and back every 4th of July. The town is always packed for this event. It’s very popular in Alaska. I can’t imagine running up and down that mountain but a lot of people do it every year. You can see the trail in this picture.

Rode the Alaska Railroad from Anchorage to Seward. It’s a beautiful trip.

From up on top of Arctic Valley you can get a view of Anchorage. Although it’s a hazy day, In the distance you can see the outline off Mount Susitna, also called Sleeping Lady by locals.

This is Arctic Valley Ski Resort in the Chugach Mountains above Anchorage. It’s been around since I was a kid. It’s a favorite spot for people in the area to go to pick blueberries in the summertime. Sometimes they are ripe by now but this year they are way behind. They’re still flowering.

A trip to the Wildlife Conservation Center out on the Turnagain Arm. It’s a very scenic place by the water and most of the animals have huge fenced in area to roam which is nice for them. You’ll find most Alaskan animals there.

Here’s a few pics of the bore tide on Turnagain Arm. It’s one of only 60 in the world and it’s one of the best. Surfers like to go out and catch the wave in the summertime and ride it down the inlet as the tide comes in.

Looking out from the visitors center at Portage Lake, you can see Portage Glacier in the distance in the mountains. Strange that when I was a kid the glacier and icebergs came into the lake all the way to where the shore is now. That’s how much it’s shrunk in 50 years.

This is the Little Susitna River running into the Talkeetna Mountains.
