Tok Alaska To Valdez

Saturday June 28th 2012

Valdez is on the Richardson Highway and it has the most beautiful scenery, the last 20 miles going into Valdez is waterfalls and rivers everywhere.  I took more then 280 pictures in 285 miles.

The highway wasn’t to bad a little roller coaster action going occasionally and a few frost heaves.

The last picture is of the Worthington Glacier.  I believe there was a total of 3 glaciers on the highway.  You could walk up to the Worthington Glacier, in fact a 16 year boy feel into a crevice on the Glacier after we had passed by.  A rescue team and helicopter had to pull him out.

The snow hangs around all summer.  More road construction.
