We arrived back in Whittier on Sunday afternoon and caught an early tunnel back to Anchorage. It was still gorgeous out. This is the boat launch area for small vessels, although annoyingly enough, bigger boats dock here a lot.
Waiting in line for our turn to enter the tunnel on the Whittier side. There are waterfalls everywhere.
You can see the triangle-shaped entrance to the tunnel below. It's TINY compared to the size of the mountain. It's a 2.5 mile long tunnel.
D stopped here at Portage to do some additional tie-downs in the boat, so I got out and snapped some photos of the icebergs. Portage Glacier used to come all the way down into the water but it has receeded significantly over the years.
