What Happened to Mount Fairweather?


July 21 – Shag Cove to Inian Cove



We woke Sunday morning to complete fog coverage! 

Lovie parked himself on the steps of the pilothouse ... as if he knew we weren’t going anywhere soon.

Waiting for fog to lift in Shag Cove.
Slowly, the landscape around us began to appear, and we pulled anchor at 9:30 ... but low hanging clouds followed us out of the park and all the way to Inian Cove.



As if on cue, coming up on Point Carolus we came upon some whales feeding. It was nothing like the show we saw back on July 9, but nonetheless spectacular. 


We put the boat in idle and everyone was on deck with cameras in hand!
This was our view on July 10 ...

Same view on July 21... hmmm, I think we are missing a mountain!
As we continue on and dropped anchor in Inian Cove, couldn’t help but take notice of the difference from our last visit ... Mt. Fairweather was no where to be seen!
