Misty Fjords is an unspoiled coastal ecosystem ideal for exploring by kayak. Deep fjords are surrounded by countless glacier fed streams and rivers, each attracting your curiosity. Nearly half of all king salmon spawning and rearing streams in southeast Alaska are located within Misty Fjords. Shear cliffs, towing over 3000 feet, polished by Pleistocene era glaciers, plummit directly into the waters you paddle. You will experience the fresh breath of countless waterfalls as you nose your kayak up to waters cascading into the sea. Ancient forests of Western hemlock, Sitka spruce and Alaska cedar everywhere grace this primeval coastal wilderness area. You will have opportunity to enter these lush rainforests and explore spectacular mountain lakes only a short climb from where you beach your kayak.
