On a cruise to Alaska, I saw my very first glacier in the
magnificent Inside Passage. Excitedly, I asked the ship's
officer what it was called.

"It's some dumb glacier," he replied.

Disappointed by his attitude, I bought a map to figure it out
myself. I spotted our location and found the name of the ice
mass.

It was called, just as he'd said, "Sumdum Glacier."
