So a week before my NOLS course started, I flew out early with my sister, Ashley, and our friend, Natalie. We spent a week going all over Alaska and it was amazing! It was kind of a cold week, but the sights were still so beautiful! We biked along the coastal trail, went on a glacier and whale watching cruise, kayaked in Prince William Sound, and explored Anchorage. It was such a fun trip!
An amazing view from Eagle River
Lunch Break during our kayaking trip
Kayaking in Prince William Sound. The day started out cold, but then the sun came out and it was awesome!!! We went past waterfalls and even saw a huge glacier in the distance.
Ash and Nat kayaking
This picture was taken at 11:30pm! It stayed light all night long!
We ran the 5K at the Ocean's Festival in Anchorage.
This was taken during our cruise. There is actually a bald eagle sitting on one of the rocks. We saw quite a few bald eagles during the cruise!
This is a humpback whale that jumped completely out of the water. It was so cool!!
Our cruise ship stopped here and we ate lunch in front of this glacier and watched big chunks of ice fall off and into the water. So cool!!
Holgate Glacier
We hiked to Exit Glacier one day and even saw a black bear up above it!
We rode a tram to the top of the mountain at Alyeska Resort and had lunch. There was still so much snow up there!
This is the first hostel we stayed at in Anchorage. It was great!
Enjoying a beautiful hike
Biking the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail in Anchorage. We biked over 20 miles along the coast. We saw a lot of moose and their babies.

I feel as though Alaska is the place to visit this summer. So many friends have been there or are going in the next few months. I better book a flight. Great pictures.
Crazy! Looks like you had a blast on your trip, so weird that it stays light all night long!!! I can't get over that.
