## Caption

Walking on a glacier, living a dream 🏔️🧊 Knik Glacier is nicknamed "Alaska's sunny glacier" because of a unique microclimate or "rain shadow" effect created by the Chugach Mountains. This creates a relatively dry area around the glacier, with less precipitation than other parts of Alaska.

Add this destination to your travel bucket list 🙌
