THE ALASKA CRUISE

BEHOLD THE BREATHTAKING GLACIAL FORCE OF NATURE

As the largest advancing tidewater glacier in North America , Hubbard Glacier ’ s terminal face is the dramatic end of a process that began as snowfall on the slopes of Mount Logan . Where it meets the sea , the blue wall of ice rises 350 feet above the waterline and extends 250 feet below . Forward movement of up to 36 feet per day results in regular calving — breathtaking moments when ice cleaves off the wall in enormous pieces that can reach the size of five-story buildings . With calving occurring on a daily basis , Hubbard Glacier offers the best opportunity to observe glacial processes as they unfold — a true once-in-a-lifetime experience . Your captain will slowly turn the ship into Yakutat Bay , navigating the awe-inspiring sight of the wall of ice that stretches seven miles wide . Enjoy incredible picture-perfect views from just about anywhere as our dedicated onboard naturalist narrates the natural drama as it unfolds .
