One of the most thrilling things we get to do on our cruises is to wait and watch for glaciers to calve. Just when you think it’s time to go and you’ll be disappointed that you didn’t see anything big, the glacier answers with a thunderous crack and an enormous splash.
A slab of ice several stories tall begins to fall from the face of Dawes Glacier.
Once the slab starts to break free of the glacier, it seems to fall in slow-motion.Once the ice crashes into Endicott Arm, it’s impossible to hold back a cheer to Mother Nature and the power of the glacier.
