In this captivating video, join John and Joy as they explore the breathtaking Shoup Bay State Marine Park just five miles southwest of Valdez. The duo embarks on an adventure to uncover the region's stunning natural beauty and rich history, known for its dramatic transformation since the 1964 earthquake that unleashed a 150-foot tidal wave.
As they journey through the park, viewers will witness the remarkable changes brought about by the recession of Shoup Glacier, which has pulled back about a mile and a half from its original position, unveiling new landscapes and a unique brackish lagoon. John and Joy share their excitement as they take in the rejuvenated shores, filled with new-growth forests of alder and spruce, showcasing various plant life that has taken root in the aftermath of the glacier's retreat.
The steep mountain walls surrounding the bay provide a majestic backdrop as John and Joy spot playful otters and sleek harbor seals frolicking in the water. The duo also observes a vibrant array of bird species, adding to the rich tapestry of wildlife that flourishes in this serene environment.
Fueled by their curiosity and love for nature, John and Joy's visit to Shoup Bay State Marine Park highlights the beauty and resilience of the Alaskan wilderness, making it a must-see destination for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.
