Dawes Glacier
Dawes Glacier is a sight to behold. The Dawes Glacier is one of the fastest-moving glaciers in Alaska—a stunning wonderland that dazzles visitors. The awe-inspiring size and power of Dawes Glacier and its gorgeous blue hue make every second of exploring Dawes unforgettable—a wall of ice two hundred feet high and a mile across greets the traveler. Three glaciers merge to form the Dawes Glacier. The two main glaciers are visible, and a smaller glacier adds to the flow from high on the north side, above the face. An additional glacier with an impressive icefall is in the hanging valley just before Dawes, on the north side of the fjord.
