The BoreTide

Leaving Anchorage and traveling south along the Turagain arm Northwest of the gulf of Alaska

Not knowing what to expect we looked and waited for the Bore Tide
The boar tide is a rush of seawater that returns to a shallow and narrowing inlet from the broad bay.
We were lucky enough to catch it during the spring tide, created by the full moon


While we waited. Beau and I took some time to walk out on the flats at Beluga point.  
We obviously didn't read this post prior to checking things out.
Never walk out onto the mud flats. People have died by getting stuck in the glacial silt and being drowned by the incoming tide!
We waited
