Back from another great weekend


This last weekend Justin and I traveled south down to Anchorage and then Seward. After spending some money for what we think were some much needed purchases (we each got some awesome packs!) we made the beautiful drive along the inlet down to Seward. We met up with some of our new friends, ate and drank, then woke up the next morning and set out for our hike. We started at the base of the Exit Glacier, took some pictures, then made the 4 1/2 mile and 3,000 feet up hike to the top to see the Harding Ice Field - one of the most beautiful views I have ever seen. The hike was rough, but totally worth it! We even saw some mountain goats along the way - no bears though! After the hike we all gathered around the campfire and listened to Dave sing and play the guitar, a perfect end to the day. Sunday morning we walked around the town of Seward, then headed back to Anchorage. We took some awesome pictures, I'll post them soon. We are tired, and a little sore from the hike, but really enjoyed the weekend with some great friends and even better scenery. Now to start planning our next hike..... :D
