Prince William Sound has truly lived up to its reputation as a breathtaking destination. The scenery here is nothing short of spectacular. We sailed motored over 60 km to reach this point, and from here, we plan to spend the next 3-4 weeks immersing ourselves in the natural beauty of Prince William Sound, exploring its magnificent glaciers and discovering the unknown.
Hogg Bay which was quite a tight spot, as we expect most of the anchorages from now on to be similarly challenging. Since we are navigating through fjords, the water only becomes shallow when we get really close to the shore. This requires us to drop anchor at depths of around 30 metres, which just means our anchor winch will work overtime and will likely need a service very soon.
The weather has been a mix of foggy days and drizzles of rain, which can be a bit frustrating at times. We've had to get used to wearing jackets almost constantly. Despite the damp conditions, the occasional spell of 3-4 days of clear, stunning weather has more than made up for it.
Tomorrow, we’re setting off for the Chenagan Glacier, a sight I’m particularly excited to witness and share with all of you. The adventure continues, and I’m eager to see what else Prince William Sound has in store for us.
Thank you for reading; I appreciate the support on my last post. I hope you have a great start to the week.
