Exit Glacier is an accessible glacier located in Kenai Fjords National Park in Alaska. The trailhead is only 15 minutes drive from Seward and the glacier viewpoint is only a few miles round trip. My dad and I hiked it at the end of our Alaska trip and here is all the information. Let me know what you think in the comments.

If you didn't get to do it on this trip, the next one you take to Alaska, you should head up towards Valdez and visit Thompson Pass! There is a glacier there called Worthington. Which you can hike right up too. Much like Exit Glacier. And the views are just magical!

The video cut right after you threw that piece of glacier to your dad's direction, he pulled out the belt.

It's pretty interesting to see just how far the Glacier has receded in just the last 11 years. Makes it feel like its now or never to see it

Looking forward to the next videos from Alaska, going to Dick Proennekes cabin up at Twin Lakes is on my bucket list. Always been fascinated by him and Alaska in general. Great video!

Alaska seems to be very popular this year - thanks for taking us with, very interesting - great to see a glacier at work - some of those rocks and stones could have been moved miles and miles and have been picked up eons ago. Did you do a tour round Seward? That looks a cute place (busy, but cute!) Keep safe!

This is so gorgeous. I love your presentations. I'm glad that you and your Pops had such an amazing time exploring together. The history of the glacier's diminished path is very interesting. 🤔 👏🤠🤠👏

Awesome video as always! If you are heading through Redding ca on your way home and would like some good food and coffee (our treat) , stop by Kaleidoscope Coffee. I would love to visit with you guys for a bit about all your great road trips! Thanks again! All the best Dan

When is the best time to visit Kenai Fjords National Park?

@Thialeana 2 жыл бұрын

Any time in the summer. Though it rains alot in August and September in Alaska. I've been to Seward in the winter, and Summer. Each time was brilliant. If you do go in August you can see salmon jumping out of the ocean. It is so cool!

Visitors have nothing to do with a glacier's survival. Climate change does, and that's the part that could be prodded along by humans and the products they use.

@@twistoffate4791 yes so much human activity and travel in so many aspects adds to climate change, as you know.
