This award winning video explores the fascinating ports of call, magnificent fjords and abundant wildlife of Alaska's Inside Passage. Your video journey will take you to the boardwalks and totem parks of Ketchikan. You'll see Creek Street, the infamous "red light" district. Watch totem carving at Saxman, home of one of the world's largest collections of authentic totem poles. From Ketchikan, journey north to Sitka, the former Russian American capitol. This charming seaside community is home to another large collection of totem poles at the Sitka Historical National Park. The sounds and songs of mother Russia comes alive with Sitka's New Archangel Russian Dancers. In Juneau you'll learn about the gold rush history of Alaska's scenic state capitol. You'll see all the major attractions including the governor's mansion, state capitol building and St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church. Thirteen miles from downtown you'll witness the amazing Mendenhall glacier, and enjoy spectacular aerial videography. Skagway was once gateway to the Klondike gold fields, and all the rush and excitement is still alive today. You'll walk the wooden sidewalks, see authentic gold rush buildings, learn about Soapy Smith, and ride the famous narrow-gauge White Pass and Yukon railroad. The last port is Haines, famous for winter's gathering of eagles. Haines is also next door to Glacier Bay National Park. At Glacier Bay you'll witness the thunder of calving glaciers, one of the many highlights of this video. Other highlights include the brown bears of Admiralty Island, and amazing video of humpback whales at Point Adolphus near Glacier Bay.
