Glaciers abound in the Juneau area of Alaska. They are all hanging on the mountains and coming down into the water, just waiting for the humans to drop their guard. When we least expect it the glaciers will attack! Here are a few photos of Mendenhall Glacier and some of the others who might soon wrest control of Alaska from the United States.

Mendenhall Glacier. It has retreated about a mile since Emily’s mom first came to Alaska.
The white streak on the right side of the image is a huge river which plunges down from the Juneau Ice Fields into the lake.
