The Marine Highway was way more impressive than, The Top of The World Highway (mostly dead spruce trees after the entry to Alaska) and even Denali on a semi clear day. I believe skipping it would have been missing one of the best parts of the trip. Unless you have taken an Inner Passage cruise before. Even then it's not the same since the cruise ships, due to size, have to "go out" into the ocean, between stops. Where the ferries hug closer to the coast in narrower, shallower passages. Here's our Blog from last summer's 11 week trip.
We'll try to do the inside passage (hopefully) in future trips but for this trip there were several factors that influenced the decision to economize and not utilize the Marine Hwy. And the Salmon Glacier was one of them. Thanks for the blog link !
