Even having grown up there, sometimes the scale of Alaska can be rather startling.

Hubbard Glacier in 3D (60.359, -139.546).
Scale: the dark specks on the floating ice in the water are seals and sea lions.

It’s hard to get a sense of scale. Here’s a shot when we’re still 5-10 miles out from the glacier. It sits about a skyscraper’s height above the water, and even more below.

Still amazed at how much that tool has improved over time. Sure helps that our machine hardware is so much faster.
Open for full panorama.
