aaa.jpg
The Infinity. In the background you can also see depressing evidence of the extensive logging in the area -- the hillside is almost completely bald, where many others are thick with trees. (If you click on the sized picture to get the really big one, you can see the sad sticks and stumps that are left.)
aaf.jpg
Everyplace we visited is part of Tongass National Forest, a temperate rainforest and the largest national forest in the country -- bigger than all the others combined.
aad.jpg
We saw lots of strange and really neat flowers in Alaska. I have no idea what this one is. [Edit, 7/5/2005: It's a crimson columbine.]
aag.jpg
The soil is so thin and poor here that much of the trees' root systems are above ground.
aai.jpg
A pond on the nature trail by the dock.
aac.jpg
Just to prove we were there. That's the Infinity in the background; there is no dock large enough for a cruise ship there so it had to anchor offshore and use some of the lifeboats as tenders to take passengers ashore.

Infinity
aae.jpg
Crimson columbine.
aab.jpg
Dock buildings, viewed from the tender that carried us there...probably as we were leaving, judging by the wake in the foreground.
aah.jpg
A really scary-looking 6-inch-long slug we encountered on the nature trail outside Hoonah.
aak.jpg
Bald eagles like to come to this spot by the fishing docks because the fishermen throw them scraps.
aaj.jpg
...and they really mean it!
aam.jpg
Mountains around Hoonah. I think this is a view from near the airport.
aal.jpg
A juvenile bald eagle. They don't get their white head and tail feathers until they're about 5 years old.
