This should be an Alaska postcard. We sent our small boats to get a closer look at the waterfall. I think this vision will be seared in my memory for a long time.

After raining all week, and putting our foul weather gear to the test, we got a moments respite. The tops of the mountains poked out, covered in a deep layer of snow still, and the waterfalls cascaded into the bay. We had this little cove all to ourselves. Prince William Sound still feels like the wild frontier. Our little secret. We took out kayaks and small boats to get a better look. Even though it wasn't raining, it felt like it when we got close to the falls. The power and force of that amount of water created its own wind and blasted us with mist.
