Mendenhall Glacier Ice Adventure Tour

Overview

Explore Mendenhall Glacier on this exclusive adventure tour into the Alaskan Wilderness. Your expert guides will lead you on a journey across Mendenhall Lake where you will paddle together with a small group past icebergs, giant waterfalls, and wildlife. On your way to the ice, you will be surrounded by breathtaking scenery of mountain peaks nestled in the Tongass National Forest. Upon landing the canoe at a remote beach site, your guides will safely lead you on an interpretive hike around the rocky surfaces located directly in front of the glacier. Here you will discover the magnificent ice features up close. Views of specific glacial features like Ice Caves and Moulins cannot be guaranteed due to the nature of the constantly moving ice.

Wow wow wow - what a topnotch tour! First off Kevin and Bryce were amazing and probably are what make this tour what it is. Both guys were super knowledgeable, patient, and just super impressive young men who kept the entire group in sync and safe from beginning to end. The entire tour is breathtaking from start to finish and was the complete highlight of our trip. We are now back home and made our famous Bryce Mendenhall Mochas missing our one of a kind experience and hope to go back one day!
