Two days in VALDEZ, Alaska! (Salmon Hatchery, Thompson Pass, Keystone Canyon, & MORE!)

Valdez is a coastal town located at the head of a fjord on the Prince William Sound and has one of the most beautiful backdrops of any town we visited in Alaska! Despite some less than ideal weather at times, we had the best two days exploring this area, including seeing wildlife, enjoying local coffee and food, hiking, admiring glaciers and epic mountains, and more!
