My mom and I went on the heli hiking & photo tour recently with pilot Steven, and it was BEYOND amazing! The highlights were making new friends with the others on the tour, the ice wall, and of course, landing on the Knik Glacier. I can't get over that color blue on the glacier! Don't forget to bring an empty water bottle to fill with glacier water at the Knik Glacier, it's the best water! I could go on and on about how wonderful this trip was, but it really is hard to explain. You just have to see it for yourself.

What a fantastic flight ! My group spent 4 hours with pilot Steven and his helicopter. Our first stop was on a promontory on a mountain side with an incredible view of several glaciers - truly spectacular. Next, we flew to a small mountain in the middle of the glacier field. We hiked to the top with about a 400 foot climb, then returned down another path. Again, we had great views of multiple glaciers with snow covered mountains in the distance. The pace of the hiking was very relaxed, and we chose our own route. Last, we flew to and landed on a glacier. Steven fitted us with crampons so we could explore the glacier for about one half hour. The return path over the valley was also beautiful. We saw bears and moose. We all felt very comfortable in the helicopter. Overall, it was an exhilarating experience. You should add this excursion to your bucket list; it's truly special.
