This combination small-group tour offers you the adventure of a lifetime! Your exciting journey begins with a ride to the heliport. Donning a pair of glacier overboots, you'll board a premier helicopter for your flight over the Mendenhall Glacier. During your breathtaking flight, you'll get to see some of nature's most beautiful landscapes and vistas accessible only by air. You'll marvel at the spectacular icefalls and rock formations of the area. Set down at the dog sled camp where you'll meet top professional mushers and their dogs to learn their tricks of the trade. Then, you'll get to experience the unique thrill of zipping across the snow pack of the Mendenhall Glacier behind a team of huskies. After your exhilarating sled experience, you'll have time to cuddle the camp puppies and for pictures with your mushers and dogs before re-boarding your helicopter and return to civilization.
