Stroll onto the ice of and Ancient Glacier.
This is your chance to see, taste, touch and
hear the splendor of Alaska. This quiet,
relaxing trip begins on a mountain lake
surrounded by 6,000 peaks. Hear the call of
the loon, watch mergansers dive, marvel at
the beauty of nature from your sea kayak.
After a stop for lunch in the shadow of the
4 mile wide Matanuska Glacier, you continue
your trip with a walk onto the ancient ice.
Your experienced guide will provide you an
informative, educational tour of the unique
landscape of a glacier. |
