Barbary Wodospady

Rozpoczynamy wycieczkę wzdłuż wspaniałej rzeki South Fork Eagle River, zatrzymując się, aby obserwować formacje tam lodowych utworzone przez lodowatą, zimną i szybko płynącą wodę. Kryształy lodu wydają się wyrastać z powierzchni wody, spowalniając i podnosząc poziom wody w niesamowity sposób. Zaledwie kilka minut później docieramy do podstawy magicznego 25-metrowego wodospadu, gdzie widać lśniące sople lodu, fascynujące lodowe mosty i spadającą wodę zamrożoną w czasie. Po zaopatrzeniu się w magazyn zdjęć do pokazania przyjaciołom i rodzinie, wyruszamy na krótki spacer na łonie natury. Zobaczysz oszałamiającą roślinność żyjącą w naszych różnorodnych lasach borealnych. Wysokie gatunki, takie jak świerki białe, brzozy papierowe i osiki, pokrywają zamarzniętą ziemię poniżej. Wyjaśnimy intrygujące tajemnice biologiczne dziejące się w otaczających nas porostach, mchach i drzewach. Mogliśmy również zobaczyć lokalne zwierzęta, takie jak: łosie, zające, gryzonie i ptaki. Transport wliczony w całkowity czas wycieczki: (1 godzina transportu i 4 godziny wędrówki)

Barbara Falls

We start the tour by following the gorgeous South Fork Eagle River, pausing to observe the ice-dam formations created by frigid-cold and fast-moving water. Ice crystals appear to grow from the surface of the water, slowing and raising the water level in terrific ways. Just minutes later, we arrive at the base of the magical 25-foot waterfall where you see shimmering icicles, fascinating ice bridges and falling water frozen-in-time. After stocking up a store of photos to show your friends and family, we embark on a short nature walk. You will see the stunning vegetation living within our diverse boreal forests. Towering species such as white spruces, paper birches, and aspens drape the frozen ground below. We will explain the intriguing biological mysteries happening within the lichen, mosses, and trees that surround us. We could also see local wildlife, such as: moose, hare, rodents, and birds. Transportation included in total time of tour: (1 hour transportation & 4 hours hiking)

What a beautiful snowy trail to the frozen falls! Our guide Matt was friendly, enthusiastic, knowledgeable & made our time a lot of fun! The falls were beautifully frozen over with water flowing through the ice. We were able to also walk through the woods, to the frozen river, where the Mountain views were amazing.Highly recommend Matt and his team for hiking tours when in Alaska!

If you want to get out there but only have half a day, then this tour is perfect! Matt and Greg are a wealth of knowledge regarding the area, plants, and animals. We extended our hike to see a bit more - the frozen waterfall and scenery were just beautiful and we had a great time. We're looking forward to taking another, longer day tour with this company this summer. Thank you Matt!
