Alaskan Owned & Operated
The Outbound Heli Experience
We founded Outbound Heli so we could become millionaires!!! (Ha! Just kidding!)
With Chris’s passion for flight and my passion to share the unbelievable scenery of Alaska; Outbound was formed!
Most flight tours in the area operate on a regimented flight path with predetermined landing locations. It’s a practice that allows for the most profit! But, we found that didn’t fit our philosophy or the mission behind our operations as a helicopter company! We wanted to be more adventure driven, giving our guests the opportunity to explore and discover along with us!
“We believe flying in Alaska is all about seeing the unseen, after all it is the Last Frontier! ”
For most, getting in a helicopter is a once in a lifetime experience, a bucket list adventure. It’s our hope that all of our guests get to experience exactly what they had dreamed about.. and more!
Every flight is different. No adventure the same!

My favorite Alaskan Heli Adventure to date:
With the help of Nic Petit and The Alaskan Dostead Mushing Co, we raised enough funds through Go Fund Me, to go on a helicopter search of a missing Iditarod pup along the trail. We searched for days and found only traces of Leon. Wouldn’t you know it, but that dog showed up near McGrath, several weeks and several hundred miles later, following the trail back home to find his musher!
Meet Bridget
Co Founder & Operations Manager
After coming to Alaska for what was meant to be a short time, I was invited on a helicopter glacier landing tour (an extremely unique adventure back then) to the Knik Glacier. The experience was a life changing one for me.
To discover that glaciers miles long, with views so spectacular they make you question your very existence, could be in my backyard, was encouraging enough for a move from the mountains of NY to the Matanuska Valley of Alaska.
Over the last fourteen years Alaska has completely enamored me with her raw beauty and untouched landscape. The idea that a helicopter can give us access to things that would remain unseen is such an awesome notion.
I never could have imagined a lifetime where I got to experience all that I have because of flying. It is so unbelievable and spectacular, that it has become something I am passionate about sharing with others.
After meeting Chris and realizing our passions aligned for sharing Alaska from the sky, we joined forces and started Outbound Heli Adventures! I can’t even begin to tell you of all the adventures we have had and those yet to be.
My favorite Alaskan Heli Adventure to date:
Flying out and camping next to the Colony Glacier. Being somewhere remote, where no one else has ever been is quite unreal. To lay under the midnight sun listening to a gigantic glacier calve into a lake with an immeasurable depth while watching a moose cow and her babies nibbling on shrubs, …there hasn’t been anything that compares.
