À quoi s'attendre

Misty Fjords National Monument
Alaska's Inside Passage or Southeast Alaska is home to some of the most breathtaking scenery on earth. One of its jewels is the majestic Misty Fjords National Monument. Completely road-less and consisting of 2.3 million acres, an area larger than Yellowstone, makes a seaplane tour the only way to comfortably experience the many different levels within the deep, narrow fjords. More dramatic than the Grand Canyon, the fjords are steep walled inlets of the sea. Created by glacial gouging long ago, snow capped, sheer granite cliffs rise dramatically 3,500 out of the sea, ribbonned with waterfalls plummeting sensationally thousands of feet. Nestled within the steep walled canyons, lie pristine bowl-shaped alpine lakes suspended at many different elevations above sea level. Fed by more than 150 inches of misty rain annually, the lush rain forest, made of giant stands of spruce, hemlock and cedar, cling to the rugged rising terrain. Wildlife abounds in the area, with mountain goats and harbor seals being the most frequently sighted animals. Our most popular tour lasts 2 hours and takes you across Revilliagegedo Island over to the Alaskan mainland where the fjords are located, and into the heart of the monument. Headsets with voice communication are provided to passengers so you can chat in flight and ask questions as we fly. For the highlight of the tour, we will land on an alpine lake or on a calm bay at sea level and let passengers get off of the floatplane for a quiet excursion. Relax, stretch your legs and take some photos as you drink in the silence of the vast wilderness. Flying within the Misty Fjords is truly an emotional experience you’ll never forget!!

Monument national des Fjords brumeux
Le passage intérieur de l'Alaska ou le sud-est de l'Alaska abrite certains des paysages les plus époustouflants de la planète. L'un de ses joyaux est le majestueux monument national des Misty Fjords. Complètement sans route et composé de 2,3 millions d'acres, une superficie plus grande que Yellowstone, fait d'un tour en hydravion le seul moyen de découvrir confortablement les nombreux niveaux différents dans les fjords profonds et étroits. Plus spectaculaires que le Grand Canyon, les fjords sont des entrées de mer aux parois abruptes. Créées il y a longtemps par les gouges glaciaires, les falaises de granit enneigées et abruptes s'élèvent de façon spectaculaire à 3 500 mètres au-dessus de la mer, entourées de chutes d'eau plongeant de manière sensationnelle à des milliers de pieds. Nichés dans les canyons aux parois escarpées, se trouvent des lacs alpins immaculés en forme de bol suspendus à différentes altitudes au-dessus du niveau de la mer. Alimentée par plus de 150 pouces de pluie brumeuse par an, la forêt tropicale luxuriante, composée de peuplements géants d'épinettes, de pruches et de cèdres, s'accroche au terrain accidenté qui monte. La faune abonde dans la région, les chèvres de montagne et les phoques communs étant les animaux les plus fréquemment observés. Notre visite la plus populaire dure 2 heures et vous emmène à travers l'île de Revilliagegedo jusqu'au continent de l'Alaska où se trouvent les fjords et au cœur du monument. Des casques avec communication vocale sont fournis aux passagers afin que vous puissiez discuter en vol et poser des questions pendant que nous volons. Pour le point culminant de la visite, nous atterrirons sur un lac alpin ou sur une baie calme au niveau de la mer et laisserons les passagers descendre de l'hydravion pour une excursion tranquille. Détendez-vous, dégourdissez-vous les jambes et prenez des photos tout en buvant dans le silence de la vaste nature sauvage. Voler dans les Misty Fjords est vraiment une expérience émotionnelle que vous n'oublierez jamais !!

5 Star - The office helped with every question we had before arrival. Our Pilot was Adam. It was a very comfortable and relaxing flight. He provided an excellent trip with information of the area for our family flying thru the Misty Fjords. The additional water landing was one of the best experiences of the tour. He took us to an incredible location for the water landing and had an incredible take off with the water ending in a massive waterfall! What an experience this was. We saw mountain goats and the views of the Fjords were breathtaking. We wanted to see as much of Alaska as we could, and this was an amazing way to do just that. Thank you for the lifetime of memories this adventure provided for our family.

My husband and I planned an Alaskan cruise to celebrate our 30th anniversary and my husband did the research for our excursions. I am a nervous flyer and I was very reluctant to agree to a flight in a floatplane through the Misty Fjords. Am I ever glad I agreed to it! Adam was an excellent pilot and his calm demeanor and educational commentary were just what I needed to appreciate the grandeur of what we got to see. The weather was picture perfect, too, which added to our enjoyment. I highly recommend this tour and encourage anyone who might be hesitant, like me, to go for it!
