The Inn At Whittier

Linocut Print

Open Edition

Story

A view of the Inn At Whittier from the harbor. 

Every summer, my family puts out from Whittier harbor to explore glaciers, fish for halibut, net shrimp, and spend a weekend camping on the Prince William Sound. Leaving the harbor, I have always been awe-struck by the epic size of the inn, and grew up convinced that it was haunted. This building remains one of my favorite pieces of Alaskan architecture and is tied to some of my fondest memories.

To Note
