On my trip to Alaska, I got some great shots of wonderful waterfalls - a lot of them were found on the way to Valdez, Alaska - on the Richardson highway. There are also great waterfalls around the Haines area, some plunging directly into the ocean...Kenai Fjords, around Seward has some too. Prepare to get wet, it's a rainforest up there - raining every other day in the summer months.

This is bridal veil falls, near Valdez:

And Horsetails falls, right down the road.

I think climbing is your only option.

I prefer our shale/limestone falls to the granite ones of the west. The water takes so ling to cut throught he granite, the falls are barely cut out after thousands of years. Here a thousand years bulds more character into a falls.

regardless... great shots. When did you get up to alaska?
