What can I do on this virtual tour?
This tour is one of my personal favourites, not only for my love of Alaska and snowy environments. The tour of the Kenai Fjords shows the damage that global warming is causing on the glaciers, but also has a wide variety of experiences, educational content and even videos of whales breaching the surface of the water.

Kenai Fjords National Park is an American national park established in 1980 by the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. The park covers an area of 669,984 acres (1,046.9 sq mi; 2,711.3 km2) on the Kenai Peninsula in south-central Alaska, near the town of Seward. The park contains the Harding Icefield, one of the largest ice fields in the United States. The park is named for the numerous fjords carved by glaciers moving down the mountains from the ice field.
