Пригоди Великої землі

Льодовик Матануска є одним із головних напрямків Аляски.

Льодовик Матануска

Маючи 27 миль завдовжки та 4 милі завширшки, це найбільший льодовик Аляски, до якого можна дістатися дорогою. Він також може похвалитися одним із найдоступніших місць для прогулянок серед усіх льодовиків на Алясці. Подивуйтеся льоду, який утворився 10 000 років тому високо в горах Чугач. Ваш день розпочнеться з чудової мальовничої поїздки вздовж шосе Гленн із приголомшливими гірськими краєвидами та достатньо часу для фотозупинок. Далі ми під’їдемо до підніжжя льодовика, щоб надіти льодошипи та шоломи та почати досліджувати льодовик пішки. Кожен день унікальний завдяки динамічній природі льодовика. Зазвичай ми витрачаємо на лід дві години і ходимо три милі. Нарешті, ми зупинимося на обід у місцевій їдальні з приголомшливим видом на льодовик. Це унікальна можливість досліджувати льодовиковий лід, яка є лише разом у житті!

Palmer

Palmer is a city in and the borough seat of the Matanuska-Susitna Borough, Alaska, located 42 miles (68 km) northeast of Anchorage on the Glenn Highway in the Matanuska Valley. It is the ninth-largest city in Alaska, and hosts the annual Alaska State Fair.

Matanuska Valley

The Matanuska River is a 75-mile (121 km) long river in Southcentral Alaska, flowing through a broad valley south of the Alaska Range known as the Matanuska Valley.

Matanuska Glacier

At 27 miles long and 4 miles wide it is Alaska's largest glacier accessible by road. It also is boasts one of the most accessible areas to walk on of any glacier in Alaska. Marvel at ice that formed 10,000 years ago high in the Chugach Mountains. Your day will start with a magnificent scenic drive along the Glenn Highway with stunning mountain vistas and plenty of time for photo stops. Next we will drive to the toe of the glacier to dawn our ice cleats and helmets to and begin exploring the glacier by foot. Each day is unique due to the dynamic nature of the glacier. We generally spend two hours and walk three miles on the ice. Finally, we will stop for lunch at a local eatery with stunning views of the glacier. This is a once in a lifetime bucket list opportunity to explore glacial ice!

We had very good experience on our matanuska glacier walk tour . Our tour guide Bill was very friendly and kind person. He listened to my son's never ending questions and answered all of them with patience. My 12yr old son had great time with him. Bill was accompanied by second tour guide(sorry I forgot her name ) she was lovely person. During the tour they made us walk in one single line and I was usually the last person with multiple photo stops .She used to wait and make sure i walked safely. If cost is not a factor i will highly recommend this tour to everyone for multiple reasons. You just walk-in with winter wear and they provide all boots,crampons,walk us safely through the glacier(extremely important). No hassle of transport.They pickup drop off at our hotel.This is road accessible glacier and we tend to think renting a car is cheaper but i guess we made a good decision on taking this tour because they came on time as promised ,my husband was off the wheel relaxing while they did the driving in that unpredictable weather. It was raining and a small portion of the drive is mud road which was bit scary. At end of the tour I was surprised that they made arrangements for lunch at good restaurant with view of glaciers instead of providing some to-go sandwiches. I would love to give 5 rating but i was not truly not happy with the glacier itself. All glacier surrounding area is covered in silt, couldn't walk very close to the glacier due to safety issues .I didn't see lot of light blue glacier like i imagined. it was very cloudy and couldn't take good pics. Below is my son with Bill :)

Steve did an excellent job of providing us with background history and local knowledge to enhance our Matanuska Glacier hike. I always learn more about an experience when I'm on a tour. Lots of photo ops and all you need to wear are comfortable walking shoes.

I did the Matanuska Glacier Summer Tour with Greatland Adventures a couple of weeks ago and it definately exceeded my expectations. I was fortunate to have a solo tour because I was the only one that day. The scenery on the way to the glacier was amazing and we were able to stop for photos a couple of times. On the way to the glacier Steve and his two guides told me a lot about Alaska and at the glacier Steve explained things about the glacier. Big thanks to Steve for using kilometers instead of miles. The glacier was absolutely spectacular! We were able to take a little bit longer walk and also saw an amazing glacial lake with superclear blue/green colors. After the walk we had a good lunch at a nearby restaurant with a beautiful view to the glacier. This tour was absolutely one of the highlights of my holiday in Alaska!
