Observe icebergs and learn about the area's history
Travel to Portage Glacier, accessible by a drive on the Seward Highway from Anchorage. Join the M/V Ptarmigan sightseeing cruise on Portage Lake. Observe icebergs as the boat navigates the waters. See the steep cliffs along the route and reach the face of Portage Glacier. Learn about the area's history and features from a U.S. Forest Service ranger. Use the vessel's heated cabin with wide windows or its open-air deck for views of the surrounding sights.
