Went to Glacier Bay in 72. No rules or permits at all. We spent the night on Marble Is. right about in the middle of GB. Built a nice big fire on the beach. Myself and two or three women. Three I think. My girlfriend, her sister and a 10 year old. I remember it well. There was a nice moon and beautiful reflection in the mirror calm water late that night. I rowed the SportYack (dinghy) out to the boat and the girls just slept in sleeping bags on the beach. The high tide got a bag or two a bit wet.

Absolutely no comparison to watching TV in an anchored yacht. Sure wish I could show the picture I took of the moonlight reflection on the water. Used a 2 1/4 camera on a tripod.
