After a very nice few days in Seward we moved on to the Williwaw campground in Portage Valley. This camground is considered by many to be the most beautiful campground in Alaska. Each camping spot is 100 feet away from its nearest neighbors and is heavily wooded. The Middle Glacier rises above the campground and the glacier and several waterfalls can be seen from our campsite. There is a salmon viewing area and several boardwalked trails connecting our campground with ponds, rivers, waterfalls and the Begich-Boggs Visitor Center dedicated to the memory of Senator Begich from Alaska and House Majority Leader Hale Boggs, whose plane was last heard from as it entered this valley. We drove through the 2 1/2 mile long tunnel to visit Whittier, visited the Crow Creek mine in Girdwood and just relaxed for several days. We'll move on tomorrow, heading for a new campsite and the Alaskan State Fair on Thursday.
