Are you ready for a multi-sport adventure?

This exciting trip has the most challenge and variety packed into one week. You'll trek glaciers, climb mountains, paddle kayaks and learn to ice climb from Prince William Sound to the Talkeetna Mountains. It's no wonder that this is our most popular package.

The challenges will reward you with great views, great memories and a real feeling of accomplishment. There's also a night in an inn, a shower and pizza half way through to keep you going.

If you're relatively fit and up for the challenges of the Alaskan backcountry you'll probably do just fine.

But come ready to play hard!

Adventure Details

Day 1 - After a gear check and orientation, we'll look for Beluga Whales, bald eagles, and mountain sheep as we take one of the most scenic drives in the world to our kayak put-in on Prince William Sound. The afternoon will be spent paddling past waterfalls and bird rookeries to our campsite in the rainforest.

Day 2 - A full day paddling! Our goal is Blackstone Bay where we paddle past huge tidewater glaciers. It's an ambitious goal requiring some mental stamina but we still have time to to look for wildlife along the way.

Day 3 - After a short paddle we're picked up by a water taxi for a quick ride back to town. After dinner in Anchorage, we head on to the Matanuska Valley. Here you'll enjoy a bed and hot shower in a historic inn.

Day 4 - We're up early to explore the Matanuska Glacier. You'll use mountaineering crampons to explore the glacier and try out the exciting frozen vertical world of ice climbing. At the end of the day we'll have an Alaskan-style barbecue and a night at our Base Camp; complete with a soak in our wood-fired hot tub.

Days 5 to 7 - It's time to head into the backcountry for three days of hiking and mountaineering. Exact locations depend on weather and trail conditions, the abilities of the team, and our un-ending motivation to explore new areas!
