The Excursion
Vaides People See 8ooie of The
Grandest Scenery On
Barth.
Last Sunday the first excursion
of the season was given on the
Dora, and about 90 people took ad
vantage of the opportunity to take
a trip to EUamar and Columbia
glacier.
The weather was cloudy in the
morning but soon turned bright and
clear, and even the porpoise and
whales did their best to assist in
entertaining the crowd by leaping
and spouting in all directions.
An hours stop was made at Ella
mar, giving the excursionists an
opportunity to visit the mine and
gather flowers, and then the run
was made across to Columbia gla
cier, which was the main fcuturc of
the trip. This glacier is one of the
finest sights along the coast, far
surpassing Muir glacier in beauty,
and a boat can go nearly to the
foot of it.
The Dora threaded its way among
the Hooting icebergs to a point
where a good view could be obtain
ed and laid to long enough for tlie
camera fiends to exhaust their am
munition. During the return trip
music and singing amused the
crowd and they returned to town
enthusiastic over the trip and the
grandeur of the scenery in the
midst of which they live.
The Bertha is due here from the
westward tonight.
