All the waterfalls along the road are iced over and the local ice climbers are delighted. It seems a bit dangerous but they always seem to make it to the top without injury. The tides for Turnaginan Arm are active year round, regardless of the temperature. When the tide goes out it leaves behind large chunks of jagged ice and it looks a bit like the surface of the moon.
We watched the skiers at the Alyeska Ski Resort for awhile and then went to The Bake Shop for their famous sweet roll and bottomless bowl of beef barley soup.
We are starting to get a bit anxious for spring to arrive and for the snow to melt. The days are getting longer which is encouraging.
There is maybe only a few weeks left of good skiing. Now is the prime time. Great snow....long days and it's not bitter cold.
