The protected waters of the Misty Fjords give the novice and the experienced kayaker outstanding opportunities for kayaking exploration and wildlife viewing alongside towering cliffs and cascading waterfalls. The Misty Fjords National Monument is one of the nation's newest and most outstanding. Its fjords have been described, as the world's most spectacular. The 2.2 million-acre Monument was created by receding glaciers, and encompasses all ecosystems in Southeast Alaska.

The diverse geologic fjords include hanging valleys, cirques, lava flows and New Eddystone Rock, a volcanic plug projecting from the depth of Behm Canal to a height of 237 feet.

Great trip in the Misty Fjords. Thanks Jarod and the Southeast Exposure crew for making it happen. This trip was a dream come through. Kayaking round the magnificent fjords in calm water, checking out all the bears, birds, eagles, seals, sea lions all in the wilderness. The camping spots were great and the beach cooking tastier than expected. Just a great experience in the wilderness away from phone, internet and back to real nature. Cheers!
