Turnagain's Bore Tides

» Red - Turnagain's Bore Tide

James,

Wonderful article. I know that Alaska is filled with wonders of nature. Thanks for sharing this informative article.

I would love to be there when the tide comes in. It must be an awesome sight. And those bald eagles, magnificent aren't they.

I have never had the privledge of seeing a Beluga Whale in its natural habitat. One day, I hope to experience this wonder of nature.

Take care, Jim and keep the articles coming. I always enjoy my visit to your topic.

» jerrib - As many years

as I've lived near the ocean, I've never heard of a bore tide! You taught me something new.

We have mud where I live that can be like quicksand when the tide is out. A man waited too long to get his fishing boat into the dock and it ran aground out in the Nisqually basin. He got out an attempted to walk to shore and was stuck. He drowned with the incoming tide - nobody saw him. Sounds like the same kind of thing.

Alaska is indeed a beautiful state.

Thanks for the beautiful picture of this area.
