What I think is really interesting is that there seems to be only one building to house all of Whittier’s residents. Is this one building really where everyone in Whittier lives?? edit….I guess so.

There are a ton of glaciers and a few trails and a small museum. The tunnel in and out of Whittier is apparently the longest highway tunnel. Other than that, there’s really not much.

And that’s exactly why I like it. There is at least one campground, but a lot of people were camping at various turn-offs on the main road, which I thought was pretty neat. We’ll be visiting again for sure.

More like parking lot camping. Maybe my expectations were too high. Maybe I shouldn’t read misleading brochures before I visit. Sigh.

I really thought Seward would be much less crowded than it was. I didn’t think that the campgrounds would have as little space between you and the next campers. I didn’t think the cabin on the cliff was in the middle of the town. There is a lot to do in Seward, and it’s probably a great place when it has less people (not during the summer). And maybe I’m spoiled from having access to so many uncrowded beaches in Massachusetts, where I’m from. Whatever the reason, I’m certainly not visiting Seward again soon.
