These are the Kenai Mountains north of Seward, Alaska. The photo is from a 2015 trip to Alaska.

While in Seward, Alaska, we went on a day cruise to parts of Resurrection Bay and Kenai Fjords National Park. Just out side of Seward harbor we saw these Sea Otters. The photos are not as good as I would have hoped - we were still not adjusted to the movement of the boat - but I thought this was worth publishing anyway.

I am not actually sure whether this is part of Holgate Glacier or not. If so it was another arm of the glacier, part of the Harding Icefields on the Kenai Peninsula and in Aialik Bay west of Seward. We had been disappointed by the fact that our ferry trip was cut short and that we missed the part of the trip that took us through some of bays on the south coast of Alaska where there are many glaciers and decided we would take a day cruise out of Seward instead. This was the glacier we visited though it no longer reaches the sea. The day, as is evident from the photo was rather dull but gave us the opportunity not only to visit several glaciers but to see a lot of whales and other wildlife, including Humpbacks, Orcas, Sea Lions, Sea Otters, Puffins, an Albatross, and many other sea birds.
