May 24, 2005 Nellie Juan Anchorage to Deep Water Bay Day 85
We briefly poked our nose into King’s Bay before circling back into incredible Deep Water Bay. This place is called a “mini Yosemite” but there is nothing miniature about it. Massive half-domes of solid granite slabs stand amongst the glaciers and rivers at the head of the bay. I saw a marmot on shore, right by the saltwater. We anchored on a steep sand-ramp that shoals extremely rapidly. I went for a hike up into the mountains and didn’t have to do any bushwacking.
