It has been a world-class travel destination since the early 1900’s. The city has plenty to offer the outdoor adventurer. You may choose to explore on foot along the Perseverance Trail or around Mendenhall Glacier, or board one of the many local whale-watching boats, or view the mountains and extensive glaciers of the Juneau Icefield from a helicopter. Although fou... ### Day 2: Glacier Bay **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 04:00 PM Designated as an International World Heritage Site in 1992, Glacier Bay is also a National Monument, a National Park and a designated Biosphere Reserve.

Temperate, coniferous rainforest dominates its southern shores. Black and bro... ### Day 2: Chatham Strait **Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM ### Day 3: Transit Decision Passage **Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM Decision Passage is the western end of the Sumner Strait, which runs through the Alexander Archipelago into the Pacific Ocean in Southeastern Alaska, bounded on the north by Kuiu Island and Cape Decision, the location of a 1932 lighthouse.

The city of Wrangell, a true Alaskan frontier town, sits at the northern end of the island, a short distance from the mouth of the mighty Stikine River. The history of Wrangell is deeply rooted in the Tlingit people, the fur trade and the gold rush. The Stikine River trade route brought the Tlingit people h... ### Day 3: Cruising Stikine Strait **Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM Stikine Strait is a picturesque channel in the Alexander Archipelago of Alaska between Zarembo Island and Woronkofski and Etolin Islands near the mouth of the Stikine River south of Wrangell.

Carved by glaciers and covered in a green carpet of mosses and lichens, Misty Fjords receives more than 150” (381 cm) of r... ### Day 4: Misty Fjords **Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM ### Day 5: Prince Rupert, British Columbia, Canada **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 11:00 PM Prince Rupert, set amongst the coastal mountains, is the jumping-off point for travelers joining the coastal ferries to Haida Gwaii, Vancouver or north to Alaska. Highlights include the quaint Cow Bay with its shops and restaurants, the Museum of Northern British Columbia, the totem carving house or the stunning sunken gardens. Prince Rupert certainly has abundant wildlife. Whether you join a local boat for whale-watching, hike along the Butze Rapids or take a scenic flight, you are sure... ### Day 6: Scenic cruising Grenville Channel **Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM Grenville Channel is a long, well-protected channel along the northern British Columbia coast between the large Pitt Island and the mainland. It is an important shipping lane, and you are likely to see ships of many different types and sizes as you pass through. The shores are mountainous on both sides, with two notable peaks about halfway through, Mt. Batchellor on the east side and Mt. Saunders on Pitt Island to the west.

The island is uninhabited, although there are two small villages in the channel, the First Nations community of Klemtu on Swindle Island and H... ### Day 7: Alert Bay, British Columbia, Canada **Arrives:** 06:00 AM · **Departs:** 04:00 PM Located on the now-dormant Alert Bay volcanic belt, Cormorant Island is host to Vancouver Island's oldest northern community, the small town of Alert Bay. It is located in the traditional territory of the Kwakwaka'wakw First Nation and today is a blend of both aboriginal and pioneer culture.

The average width of the narrows is just 750 meters. During extreme tides, the current through the narrows is subject to severe Venturi effect, resulting in an increased velocity that can reach 15 knots. For much of its modern history, there was an additional hazard in the narrows called Ripple Rock, a shall... ### Day 8: Vancouver, B.C., CA **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM The humble beginnings of the City of Vancouver, in the settlement of Gastown on Burrard Inlet, rose out of the old growth forests and the sawdust of the old Hastings Mill.

As a world-class city it has the best of both worlds, intermingling urban sophistication with a sense of wilderness and outdoor adventure.
