College Fjord

College Fjord is located in Prince William Sound. Here, a large concentration of glaciers reach the sea, lined up one after the other. The wide Harvard Glacier forms the end of the fjord, and it may also provide some exciting calvings. The glaciers of College Fjord are named after Eastern schools that helped fund the Harriman Expedition, which discovered this area.
