JNU-217 - Glacier Trek - Level 1

(2008)

 

 

A Family Friendly Tour

This trip is a non-strenuous, 1-hour interpretive walk. The guide provides detailed explanations of the glacier environment, the surrounding area, and teaches proper use of the mountaineering equipment provided. There is plenty of time for photo opportunities. The amount of walking is moderate, over relatively flat to rolling terrain. No previous experience is necessary.  Appropriate mountaineering gear is provided for each level of trekking experience. All trips are conducted in small groups, normally no more than 12 clients, and provide personalized service.

Your treks includes approximately 30-35 minutes of helicopter flight time to take you to and from your glacier landing site. On your way you will have the opportunity to witness the landscape change from the lush forests at sea level to the granite peaks that surround the Juneau Icefield. Flights are conducted in AS350 AStar helicopters. These aircraft have become the standard in the helicopter tour industry.

Time on the glacier to explore and learn, proper equipment to safely and effectively move around the glacier surface, and knowledgeable, experienced guides to teach you about the glacier environment and how to use the mountaineering equipment are the core features of the glacier trek.
