The Great Alaskan Adventure - Day 12

July 21, 2013 - Valdez

We packed up Sunday morning and headed back to Anchorage.  On our way home we stopped at
Thompson Pass. It  is a 2,805 foot-high gap in the Chugach Mountains northeast of Valdez, Alaska. It is the snowiest place in Alaska, recording 551.5 inches of snow per year on average.




Then we stopped at Worthington Glacier.  It was a short hike to the glacier - Andy took off right away to climb, I had worn flip flops and didn't think I should climb, but the falls looked to beautiful I couldn't help myself!







I saw this sign on the way to Valdez and HAD to stop and take picture on the way home:
