Resurrection Bay

Kris and I took a tour of Resurrection Bay on the M/V <span style='font-style: italic;'>Star Of The Northwest</span>.
Resurrection Bay owes its name to Alexandr Baranov, fur trader and manager of the Russian-American Company in the early 1800's. His ship sheltered in the bay during a severe storm until the weather abated on Easter Sunday. They named the bay in honor of the day.
Most of the coastline is rocky.
On this overcast but bright day, the snow-capped mountains fade into the sky.
Glaciers and snow melt feed lush green valleys that drop off suddenly into the sea.
