WORTHINGTON GLACIER - the first time
While driving to Valdez, Alaska, the two RV Gypsies were amazed as Worthington Glacier came into view. After checking into the RV Park, the two RV Gypsies returned to hike up to Worthington Glacier and touch it. Elevation - 6,134 feet.

Below: Views of the lake at the bottom of the glacier and a small waterfall on the other side of the lake. According to state park rangers, this is the most visited site in the Copper River Basin, yet, the two RV Gypsies had the entire area to themselves, which they later realized was very dangerous and unsafe. Cell phones did not work here, so there was no way to call for help if needed.

Below: The two RV Gypsies hiked through the water and mud, which is actually part of the glacier. Karen Duquette usually walks behind Lee Duquette so she could take photos of him, plus scenery, without making him stop.
