Blue Ice Trail offers the only developed access to a glacier in Kachemak Bay State Park. At Grewingk Creek, there is a hand-operated cable car pulley system that requires two people for operation. Caution: Unless properly trained and outfitted for glacial travel, do not climb on ice or in ice caves.
