A trip to a ghost forest of Southeast AV̳

Soon, I will fly from Fairbanks to Yakutat, a wild corner of AV̳ located at the elbow where Southeast connects with the rest of the state. From there, I will climb into a smaller plane with scientist Ben Gaglioti. The pilot will land on a beach. From there, Gaglioti and I will hike to a “ghost forest” exposed at the terminus of La Perouse Glacier.
