He says:
There is a group of wildlife biologists staying here for the summer, and they study the various birds that call Icy Bay home. They go out for two or three day excursions, study their respective subjects, and return to base to rest, download data, and repack. On occasion, they fly around and listen for the radio beacons they've outfitted various birds with, to log their locations and travel patterns. Needless to say, we hitched a ride on one of those flights, just to get up and see the sights.
Icy bay Lodge, the bay, the coast range, Mt. St. Elias, the fjords and glaciers, the Malaspina Glacier, potholes, etc. What a beautiful place!!
So, we used the opportunity to scout out the bay for good camping spots on our kayak tour. At this point we are planning a week long kayak trip in the bay, to explore the fjords and valleys, see wildlife, and of course, to see the glaciers up close and personal. So many beaches, stream valleys, and high meadows to explore, so little time!
