My mil is going to denali and then on an Alaskan cruise in may. Any suggestions on a physical gift I can give her related to this like fancy warm gloves or a book? Thanks for your ideas!

We were just there a couple of months ago. Some useful items for us were:

Tour book - this one is good:

Fingerless gloves with mitten cover - keeps hands warm, but easy to use with camera

Rain suit - it could still be very rainy in May. Usefull on deck when it's raining, but you want to see the glaciers/whales, also for walking around in town. We got really good sets at Costco. They fold up and store in a small bag, but can fit over regular clothes if its starts to rain heavily.

Thick, warm wool socks

Good binoculars are a MUST, if she doesn't already have some

Awesome. Thanks. I ordered the binoculars, book, and gloves because those are something she would never buy herself. Thank you!
