Creator's Key Takeaways

we just got back from our 11 night uh Land and Sea tour with triple Denali

it was the the the just the vast views or um scenery and the visual stimulation right um it was just enormous

if you're looking to capture and Glacier cabbing number one you got to have patience and you got to stick with it

variable weather in my opinion Lori doesn't necessarily agree with this it's not that I don't agree with it it's you know if you can afford to do this yeah I would recommend that you buy the Hightech clothing

Creator's Tips & Advice

Wear a baseball cap under your rain hood to keep water off your face
Have patience and stick with it when trying to capture glacier calving
Bring bug spray for mosquitoes, which are active even in cooler temperatures
