Dogsledding on an Alaska glacier must be on your bucket-list!
We are asked by many people what activities in Alaska comprise a bucket-list experience. Dog-sledding on a remote glacier with boundless mountain views is right up there at the top. There are very few places in the world you can have the privilege of living this very unique adventure. With access by helicopter, this tour is far more than just the dogsled experience. Depart a renowned lodge at the edge of the wilderness. Hover over a glacial fed valley where water turns to ice and blue ephemeral lakes glisten in the sunlight. View dall sheep on the ridge line as you descend to your parking spot on the upper glacier ridge. There you are met by your dogsled guides, and the most happy, energetic dogs you will ever meet! Watch your guides hook up your team of 16 dogs and learn the skill and tricks of their trade. Learn how to steer and brake your dogsled in which you will drive behind your guide! With a whistle, off you go! It's just an awesome experience and the photo ops are incredible. So, immerse yourself in nature and in a long-standing Alaskan tradition. Get out and mush!
