Misty Fjords National Monument, Alaska, USA Stock Photo

Experience a landscape slowly crafted by nature over tens of thousands of years and by forces so great that only nature could create such handiwork. Once buried under a solid layer of thick glacial ice, the Misty Fjords National Monument is now home to some of the most dramatic scenery in Alaska. Sheer granite cliffs, plunging 1,000-foot waterfalls, river valleys, and crystalline lakes surrounded by untouched forests are sights waiting to be seen.
