Misty Fjords National Monument
The protected waters of the Misty Fjords gives both the novice and experienced kayaker outstanding opportunities for exploration and wildlife viewing. The Misty Fjords National Monument is one of the nation's newest and most outstanding. Its fjords have been described, as the world's most spectacular. The 2.2 million-acre monument was created by receding glaciers, and encompasses all ecosystems in Southeast Alaska.
The diverse geologic fjords include hanging valleys, cascading waterfalls, cirques, lava flows and New Eddystone Rock; a volcanic plug projecting from the depth of Behm Canal to a height of 237 feet. |
