The rest of group went for bear watching at Katmai National Park, I stayed back in Homer for a relaxing afternoon wandering around the small town.
Harding Icefield Trail near Seward was one of the most strenuous trails I've done so far, but the view at the peak was breathtaking and surreal.
Portage Glacier Cruise tour was somewhat boring and I would recommend skipping.
Columbia Glacier Glacier Kayaking was totally worth the 8 hour drive from Anchorage to Valdez. The roadtrip itself was also very scenery and memorable. My favorite segment of the entire Alaska summer trip.
