BACKGROUND:
The terrain can be challenging for the novice hiker but routes are selected that are in everyone's ability to not only complete but have a great time doing it! We have had hikers that ranged in age from 12 to 70 years young! We have a multitude of destinations that will please everyone from the self-propelled adventurer to the single species minded photographer.

Every backcountry traveler should be prepared for inclement weather conditions (remember, it's high country Alaska!). We send out complete equipment lists upon trip confirmation and remain in close contact prior to your arrival in Alaska. We discuss, in detail, each trip and answer every question you may have. We examine each persons gear before we depart on any of our trips. High quality equipment is essential! There are stores in Talkeetna where some gear items can be purchased. We provide all tents, cooking equipment including stoves, fuel, pots & pans and all food. We offer very savory and nutritious meals and can accommodate almost anyone's dietary needs.

ITINERARIES

3-DAY HIKES:
We fly out to one of several destinations and pitch a main camp. This camp provides a home base for us as we depart each day for exploratory walks in the tundra, with nothing more to carry than day packs with water bottles and cameras. We'll depart early each morning and pack a lunch, hiking in a different direction each day and returning for the evening meal.

5-DAY HIKES:
About ten destinations are available for these trips, as well as a few cabins that can be incorporated into the beginning or ending of an excursion. This is an excellent option for an adventurous family.
