Another night on the sea - this time we were really in the ocean as we left the inside
passage behind and were in the Gulf of Alaska. We awoke in the gulf and entered College
Fjord in the late afternoon.
College Fjord is a fjord located in the northern sector of Prince William Sound. The fjord contains five tidewater glaciers (glaciers that terminate in water), five large valley glaciers, and dozens of smaller glaciers, most named after renowned East Coast colleges. College Fjord was discovered in 1899 during the Harriman Expedition, at which time the glaciers were named based on the alma mater of the various scientists.

It was a very raining and chilly day. So the photos of the tidewater glaciers are very dark.
