AOPA Pilot Magazine - September 2013 - 10

VISUAL APPROACH

Summer
solstice
It’s a week before the
summer solstice, and even
though it’s 9 p.m., the sun
at this far northern latitude
is well above the
mountains ringing Alaska’s
stunning Glacier Bay.
Jill “Ivy” McIver, Cirrus
sales rep for the
Northwest, is in the left
seat of this SR22T-G5 as
we follow a winding and
indescribably scenic route
through a landscape of
immense scale. Humpback
whales feed in the bay’s
deep blue water, and
normally solitary eagles
flock above them in
groups of 50 or more.
This portion of southeast
Alaska is a rain forest
that’s frequently shrouded
in fog and low clouds—but
on this June evening the
vast and dramatic chains
of mountains, glaciers, and
coastline seems endless.
