Alaska 101 @ Mayhew College

If there was a storm I can not imagine how violent it might be, but from the size of the driftwood trees it must be something to behold. The whole time we were at the base of the Robinson Mountains with the larger St. Elias Mountains behind them we never had a big storm. On a calm day the breakers that broke on this endless sandy beach were ten to twelve footers. The amount and size of the Brown Bears in this country made you feel small, and I can imagine this rugged country cutoff on both ends by the Malaspina and Bering Glaciers made the Brown Bears feel small. With the great Gulf of Alaska constantly roaring at you, then the mighty St. Elias Mountains shooting up behind you and the Bering and Malaspina Glaciers on both sides, it made me feel like a termite on a Redwood...
