Our halibut charter was in Whittier, Alaska. It is a tiny tiny town 45 minutes south of Anchorage. 135 people live there year round. The whole town lives in a condo owned by the city. No one is allowed to build homes...crazy! Anyway, the only way in and out of this town is through a train tunnel that goes straight through the mountain. I believe it is a 2.5 mile tunnel. The problem with this is that it is only open for 15 minutes every hour so if you miss your 15 minute opening you sit and wait for an hour. (Guess who was driving and missed our 6:30 a.m. opening because I missed the turn.) Anyway, our 7:00 charter turned into an 8:00 charter. Check out all the glaciers there! Global warming, my eye.
