Shad did an awesome job showing us the beauty of the Knik glacier and more on such a beautiful day! We left from the Knik River lodge then headed to the glacier where the scale of the glacier is hard to comprehend until you are there. Shad pointed out the other glaciers nearby and suggested we take an opportunity to upgrade our package on such a beautiful day. The experience did not disappoint! We landed way up near a hanging glacier surrounded by the Alaska range. On our way up there I saw a huge bull moose hanging around the side of the mountain and on our way back I saw a mother and her calf! The view in every direction is just stunning! I highly recommend this tour!

This was AWESOME! I had hiked a glacier when visiting Alaska once before but flying over it was a whole new experience! Shad was an amazing pilot and made the experience so fun. It was also great that it was a tour we were able to manage in the evening after our work schedule.
