This place is magical, with its thundering falls, immense Sitka Spruces, and fresh green foliage all around, the creek was roaring that day, the falls spreading a fine mist , all around, we quickly walked through the spray, becoming totally soaking wet in the process, but the reward was up higher, where the  shores of the falls are covered with Devils club, Skunk cabbage , and wild flowers.      The moisture and the light these plants are getting  makes them grow very , very large.    I just stood there, amongst all this green and life, taking it in, soaking it up.   I loved that place, and will someday go back there again…….

Our first sign of glacier ice.    Such a beautiful color.
