Klotz Hills beach rock

The rising tide envelopes a rock encrusted in blue mussels and acorn barnacles on a beach near the Klotz Hills and not far from Maquinna Cove in Muir Inlet in Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve in southeast Alaska. Prominent in the background is Mt. Wright which is located at the mouth of Adams Inlet. EDITORS NOTE: The use of a slow shutter speed smoothed the action of the waves.
