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)

Mike was a wonderful guide. He is very knowledgeable and I learned a lot about Alaska! He was also very helpful to make sure I warm enough and had ice spikes on my shoes to make it a safer hike. I highly recommend this hike.

If you're in Anchorage in the Fall / Winter months, you should definitely do this winter waterfall walk! Matt was so nice and very informative, telling us about the horticulture and wildlife during our hike. He also took amazing photos of the landscape and of our group. The waterfall this time of year is also gorgeous. I highly recommend!!
