In the wilderness is where memories are made… Whether it’s the exhilarating rush as you look over the edge of a bottomless crevasse, the fresh mountain air that fills your lungs, or the sense of wonder gazing across the glaciated landscape. With a friendly, local guide and two days to immerse yourself in unrivaled natural beauty, you’ll smell the earthy alder of our boreal forests, feel the cool breeze on your face from the Harding Icefield, and have plenty of time to slow down to soak it all in…

Small Groups & Cozy Camps

In contrast to crowded tours in Alaska, our backcountry camps are comfortable, and limited to 5 guests per guide. Bottom line? A more intimate experience with everything from glaciers to amazing vistas.

See What Most Are Missing

While the majority of visitors stay on the pavement and pathways, you’ll get to experience the picturesque backcountry, an array of wildlife, and stunning vistas completely inaccessible by car.

Award-Winning Guides

Beyond the jaw-dropping scenery, your experienced and friendly guide will share stories, local history, glaciology, and answer any questions you have throughout the tour.
