Truly Beyond Words – A Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience!

I honestly don’t even have the words to describe how incredible this experience was, I’m still smiling, and I don’t think anything will ever top it! From start to finish, this was something truly magical and unforgettable.

Flying over the breathtaking landscape to land on Mendenhall Glacier was surreal, but the real magic happened once we met the amazing dog team and our phenomenal musher, Brian. His passion, knowledge, and care for the dogs made the whole experience so special. You could feel how much he loved what he does and it made us love every second of it too.

Griffin, our host and safety guide, made everything feel seamless and safe while keeping the energy high and the group excited his warmth and enthusiasm were infectious.

The views from the helicopter were jaw-dropping, and his calm, confident flying added to the experience.

The ride on the snow covered glacier was much smoother than I anticipated, so if you can manage to get into a helicopter, I highly recommend this excursion...

This was a highlight of our Alaska vacation. The views from the helicopter were breathtaking. Our pilot was friendly, knowledgeable, and fun. Shaynee Traska, our musher, was amazing. She was so engaging and taught us so much about sled dogs. It was fascinating to hear about her experiences as an Iditarod finisher! It is clear she loves her dogs and loves sharing her passion with others. The dogs were very sweet and friendly, even though they were excited to run. They even had puppies for everyone to snuggle. We struggled with this excursion because of the price. We decided to splurge and we are so...
