A 6-Day Itinerary Full of Snow, Bears & Hikes!

This July, I traveled to Alaska and found a summer that still has snow โ„๏ธ! Hereโ€™s a recap of our 6-day, 5-night adventure: ๐Ÿงณ Day 1: Chicago โœˆ๏ธ Anchorage We stayed at the Alaska Glacier Lodge โ€” booked it mainly for the next morningโ€™s helicopter tour! ๐Ÿš ๐Ÿš Day 2: Took the Grand Knik Helicopter Tour โ€” HIGHLY recommend! We landed at 3 incredibly scenic spots (see P2-P5 โ„๏ธ). Then we hit the road and drove to Homer ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿ’จ. Stayed overnight in Homer. ๐Ÿป Day 3: Joined a Bear Viewing Tour โ€” flew about 1 hour to a remote area. The flight itself was gorgeous, and at the destination, we spotted 6-7 bears! We even saw a mama bear with two cubsโ€ฆ and witnessed her nursing them ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿงธ (P6-P9). Drove that night and stayed in Seward. ๐Ÿฅพ Day 4: Hiked the Harding Icefield Trail! A challenging but absolutely epic trek with unreal glacier views. โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ”๏ธ ๐ŸฆŒ Day 5: Tackled the Lost Lake Trail โ€” a 6-hour, 30,000-step adventure!
