After leaving Seward I will again retrace my route north, this time only as far as Tern Lake, and then take Highway 1 west, and then south to Homer. Here is a map of the route I will be taking. It shows that soon after I get on Highway 1 I will drive out of the mountains and there won’t be any more until I get to Homer.
Here we go…

Shortly after passing the fish hatchery shown above I reached Highway 1. The road would go west for a short while before getting out of the mountains.





I saw this large moose sculpture outside a local business. It would shed the orange vest and boots by the time I came back north in two days.
