Off to Interior Alaska - Scenic Flight from Juneau

After a couple of weeks exploring the Inside Passage mainly by ferry and foot, we're off to Interior Alaska.

Had to set the clock for 3:45am to catch a shuttle van for the early Alaska Air flight.
As Sitka is a big fishing vacation town and with Alaska Air allowing three bags for free, many passengers had three very large boxes of frozen fish to check onto the jet.

Stopped in Juneau, then off to Anchorage. The pilot flew low (guessing 16,000 feet) over the non-stop glaciers and ice fields that spread out for hundreds of square miles. Absolutely the finest sight I've ever seen from the air!
