24. Short tunnel at Portage Creek, with visitor center in background

Just past the last driveway to the visitor center is a bridge over Portage Creek, followed by a short tunnel to Bear Valley, where the Whittier Tunnel staging area is. As you cross the bridge, glance to your right for a view of Portage Lake and (usually) some icebergs.
