One day in Whittier, Alaska! (Portage Pass, Emerald Cove, & driving the tunnel!)

Welcome to the town of Whittier, Alaska! This town is located on the Prince William Sound and is pretty unique, as it requires driving through the longest highway tunnel in North America to get to it and most residents living in the same building. We spent a day here seeing tons of glaciers, exploring town, picking wild berries, watching salmon swim, and hiking to a gorgeous cove. It was a blast!

    If you find any more salmonberries, the yellow ones are ripe, too. VERY GENTLY pull on a berry; if it almost falls off by itself, it’s ready. We pick them on Adak; add a little sugar and water to a couple of cups and cook down til thick and spread on pancakes. Yum!

    I've watched all your Alaska journey videos. I took a road trip from Fairbanks to Kenai peninsula back in 2009. Went to Portage Glacier, whale watched and saw Orcas and walked up to Exit Glacier. It has receded so much from when I was there. Thank you for this video series and last year I cruised the inside passage whuch was amazing. This makes me want to road trip again. Alaska is so beautiful!!!

    When I was in Alaska in 1987, I took a tour bus from Anchorage to Whittier, and our bus drove onto a train to go through the tunnel. The wait for the train was hardly boring -- there must have been 30 bald eagles roosting in trees along the track. In Whittier, we boarded a boat and cruised to Valdez. We saw a couple of orcas. Thank you for taking us with you.

    I was at Whittier and Portage Pass before, Portage Glacier used to have a boat tour that went up to it. You guys got very lucky with hardly no wait to go through the tunnel. Hatcher Pass was a great place I remember too and I look forward to the next video. But one thing- you have not mentioned ice worms. When I was there I heard about ice worms and I thought it was a local fable but one of the glaciers had a sign for ice worms and a local guide pointed them out and sure enough there were these tiny little worms which fed on debris on top of glaciers. I went to one of those ice cream shops later and asked for “ice worm swirl surprise” and got a laugh.

    Oh my word everywhere you look the view is just magical and awesome. The mud though was insane!! The salmon making their way upstream is just, I have no words. They get to where they need to be with such determination, bruised and battered but but victorious. I can certainly learn a lot from that. Take good care.
