This scene was south of Anchorage going into the Kenai Peninsula. It shows the variety of woodlands you find in Alaska. Tundra in the foreground to glacial melt in the back. Great place.

When you stand and look at the fields where there use to be glaciers it is overwhelming. The grandeur and scope of the movement is phenomenal. At Exit glacier they have put time signs along the path to show you where the glacier was at different points in time. The signs get closer and closer together as you get to the glacier. A stark reminder of how fast it is retreating.
