It may be summer, but Alaska has ice! Stop 1 on our Great Alaskan Adventure was an hour north of Anchorage. The Matanuska Glacier dates back centuries.
Massive glaciers like this one carved
these lands. And after parking the car,
a mile long hike takes adventure seekers
to the base.
Visitors sign a waiver to climb all over the
glacier.
In our shorts, we slid, climbed
and navigated with a special friend.
In his saddle bag, even Dexter went along
on the adventure! A group of Korean
tourists saw the Yorkie at Sarah's side.
"We just found him wandering," Scott
said.
"We take him and give him good home,"
a concerned Korean mother said.
"No, Dex has a good home," Scott quickly
said before Dexter could leave our side
(he's safely in the back seat now as I write
this).
The water is pure (we hope). Some
people were bottling up it's chilly
goodness.
Then again... Adam said he
wanted to pee on the glacier and burn
a hole in it.
NEXT STOP: The Cabin.
