Playing around on Mendenhall Glacier

This is from my 2009 Alaska Inside passage cruise. I got to the Mendenhall Glacier by kayaking across the lake which is much bigger than what you see in this picture - http://www.fs.fed.us/r10/tongass/districts/mendenhall/webcam.html

This company - Above and Beyond Alaska http://www.beyondak.com/index.html
picks me up at the pier and takes me to their place to get outfitted and then takes me to the lake where I can paddle around ice bergs - http://www.flickr.com/photos/rickkaufman/940216956/in/set-72157603323935098/

Or stop at the beach by the waterfall which you can see on the right side of the glacier cam picture from the above link. - http://www.flickr.com/photos/rickkaufman/939359731/in/set-72157603323935098/

Or park the kayak on the other side closer to the glacier - http://www.flickr.com/photos/rickkaufman/940181284/in/set-72157603323935098/ and get out for a hike - http://www.flickr.com/photos/rickkaufman/4249779202/in/set-72157623121769982/
