  • While viewing the glacier in Tracy Arm Fjord in Alaska large chunks of ice fall from the 200 ft tall tidewater glacier and several large house sized "shooters" emerge from underneath the water level, creating a huge wave that rocked the boat.

    Shooters are cool! Imagine that ice probably hasn't seen daylight in thousands of years!!

    Lovely footage. The seals basking on one of the smaller ice floes was a nice touch - gave a better impression of the immense size of the icebergs.

    Pretty good footage. The boat must have been rolling all over the place.

    Why is it called calving?

    Thanks to the boat captain for the ride there , but the noise from your motor is annoying , this is nature dude , try to make your motor a little bit less noisy please !
