Highlights Of Your Tour
Fly Over Stunning Mountain Peaks
& Dramatic Glacial Terrain
Bucketlist Experience
See the Chugach Range from the air as your helicopter pilot takes you on an epic flying adventure. Experience exceptional, unobstructed views of the Alaskan Wilderness from the air. Take flight over stunning mountain peaks, spot wildlife, towering waterfalls, dramatic glacial terrain & beauty that is unique to Alaska!
Experience custom flight paths and landings based on your bucket list items. Step foot on the exposed ice of a glacier in the Knik Valley and trek with your pilot to explore the many facets of the glacial surface (Moulins, blue pools, and deep crevasses), choose a high alpine landing to take in large, sweeping sights of glaciers and rocky ridgelines, land on the shoreline of a massive glacial lake filled with giant floating icebergs, a rocky beach at the face of a dramatic ice wall or let your pilot take you to their favorite landing location!
This multiple landing flight is the best option for those seeking varied landscapes for photographic opportunities and filming events.
What To Expect in Summer
As the snow melts and exposes blue glacial ice our expert pilots land your helicopter on the glacier surface where you’ll get to experience brilliant blue melt pools & deep crevasses. In the summer months you can choose to polar plunge into one of these giant pools.
What To Expect in Winter
Experience a winter wonderland of giant frozen icebergs, ice caves and frozen waterfalls. The surface of the glacier may not be safe to land on due to snow depth. Instead landing may be at the terminus of the glacier near an ice wall, on the shoreline of a frozen iceberg filled lake, or in the gorge to explore ice caves. All offer a chance to experience beautiful blue ice!

“One of the best experiences of our lives.”
“We did a glacier landing adventure, and unlike some other companies in the area (who we saw land and leave very quickly) we had a good amount of time on the ice where Chris took us on a mini hike to some of the waterfalls and pools on the glacier.
It was truly a memorable experience and highly recommend it to everyone.”
