Just finishing up a week sailing the wrong way up (or is it down?) the Lynn Canal, from Skagway to Juneau…and as always it was magical. If there’s a prettier 100 miles of sailing anywhere, it would be hard to imagine! #svhopscotch #sailnwadventures #skagway #thisisskagway
It’s not all wind and sunshine…although actually in Skagway it usually is! Today felt a lot more like the rest of Southeast Alaska…heavy rain and no wind (at least until the afternoon when it cleared with the breeze). But of course…even the rainy days are spectacular. We had a massive visiting humpback put on a show as our rainy day silver lining. #thisisskagway #svhopscotch #sailnwadventures #atmosphericriver #skagway
We had a visitor today that flew with us for almost 10 minutes as we sailed along. Such a rare treat, and awesome experience. There’s nothing I know of that quite connects you to nature like sailing. When you hoist the sails and turn off the engine you become part of the scene and not just a viewer of it. I think animals must know this also, and sometimes you can see their fear of humans, turn into curiosity. #svhopscotch #sailnwadventures #thisisskagway #skagway #taiyainlet
Temps hit 81F degrees in Skagway this week! We had so much wind, wildlife, and wonderful guests to share it with. Summer is here in Southeast Alaska! #sailnwadventures #svhopscotch #skagway #thisisskagway #trailandsail
Even in the middle of Winter SE Alaska is amazing! Just happened to be at the right place at the right time yesterday when this group of Orcas came by with their eye on a sea lion (who survived!). #sailnwadventures #skagwayalaska #svhopscotch
