On 10/28/2006 we took another fifty mile drive along Turnagain Arm, all the way to the Kenai Peninsula, looking for swans. The ponds had a thin crust of ice, and the water foul were gone. We only saw this one pair of Trumpeter Swans. They had broken the ice when they landed on a road side pond, near Portage, AK, They were sitting resting on the ice before heading on.
