There are lots of threads about this very question on the Alaska Ports of call board.

We had a 7A obstructed view cabin (#5149) on the Spirit this past June on our cruise to Alaska. This cabin was located by one of the larger lifeboats but the top of the lifeboat was level with the floor of the balcony so we could see everything except directly below us.

Got many great photos from our balcony and would book it again in a heartbeat!!

If i was to book a balcony cabin on the Spirit- I would book deck 4 aft- Its covered. I can see both sides from the aft. Forward will be too windy.

Book an aft-wrap on deck 4. Those balconies have the most overhang in case it rains. Alaska is all about the journey, so get the biggest balcony you can afford for picture taking. The aft-wraps on deck 4 have a split cabin so you have 2 rooms-both with tvs.
