Taku Harbor to Tracy Arm Cove - 4 ½ hours, 30 miles

It was definitely low tide as the pilings were raised far out of the water showing their barnacles. We headed out around 9am to a small craft advisory (we’re larger than a small craft), so it was a bit rough. Heather & Ann sat on the bow for quite a while in the rainy and freezing 39 degree weather. Luckily as we approached the cove, the rain stopped. Sumdum Glacier was easily seen. There were many icebergs at the entrance to the Tracy Arm bar. We had to go check out two of them. One was the size of a two story house. We then anchored inside the cove around 1:30pm. We took the dinghy out to get up close and personal with about three icebergs, which were quite awesome. Then some quiet time for everyone as we just look out at the beautiful large snow capped mountains, and watched the fog roll in. We also watched two large yachts (both 55’-65’) come into the harbor later in the evening. The larger of the two was named ‘Twilight’.
