SOME IDEAS ON
WHAT TO BRING
The boats are warm
and dry but Prince William Sound is the home of the worlds northernmost
temperate rain forest. Good clothing will greatly enhance your outdoor
enjoyment of the area.
- - Rubber boots
(aka: the alaska tennis shoe). Need not be expensive and should be about
mid-calf high. Should be comfortable to wear and walk in. These will
probably be your principle footwear off the boats.
- - Good quality
rain gear; pants and jacket. We use shells large enough to layer underneath
for some of those colder locations, ie... sitting or kayaking in front
of a tidewater glacier.
- - Layers. Pile
or ‘fleece” is light weight, warm and dries fast.
- - Extra MED’s
- - Extra film,
batteries. Don’t forget the battery charter!
- -Bugs have to
make a living too! We try to avoid them, but you should bring bug protection
(clothing or chemicals) if you can’t use the off the shelf stuff.
Average temperatures
June through August range in the 60’s although we’ve seen
it swing from as low as the 40’s to up into the high 70’s.
If you are traveling in spring or fall, plan on bringing some extra gear
for warmth.
