Your Guide and Tour Service to Explore the Best of Alaska
in the remote Wilderness

Twin Lakes: The Twin Lake are bedded between mountains in a pristine wilderness setting. We fly with a floatplane to the upper lake. During our trip we canoe from the end opf the upper lake to the lower end of the lower lake. In between we explore the surrounding mountains in day hikes, and visit the landmark cabins of the late „man of the wilderness“ Dick Proenneke whose book „One man’s Wilderness„  is a wonderful introduction into this idyllic wilderness. Those who like can sportfish for Lake trout and Greyling.

Almost every day we either have an hiking trip or an excursion by boat (Kenai Fjords National Park) or bus (Denali National Park). We visit the heart of the Wrangell- Saint Elias National Park at McCarthy and the Kennicott Copper mines, a national hisotric landmark. We spend the nights in cozy Bed & Breakfasts.

Bears, Volcanoes, The Valley of 10 000 smokes, those are the great attractions of Katmai National Park. We fly from Anchorage to Brooks Camp where we have time to view the Brown Bears catching salmon while they try to jump over the Brooks Falls. For four days/3 nights we will hike and camp through the Valley of 10 000 smokes. This ash filled valley is a unique volcanic landscape nowhere else to be found. After returning to Brooks Camp we have an extra day to spend with the fishing bears at Brooks Falls.

When in the late 1920s forester and explorer Robert Marschall travelled the Koyukuk river country from the golddigger town Wiseman he reached a stunning place on the North Fork of the Koyukuk river. The mountains on either side came close together, narrowing the valley. To the north between the mountains Marshall could see the continental divide. He called this place the Gates of the Arctic. In 1980 this became the name for the entire new national park. Our trekking leads us from Wiseman through the wilderness of the Brooks Range to this Gate. We reach Wiseman by van along the Dalton highway from Fairbanks. Our trek takes 5 days walking about 6 hours a day.

At the Gates one can fly back to Wiseman by bushplane or continue by canoe for another four days to the small town Bettles and fly to Fairbanks from there. A great way to discover an exciting part of the Gates of the Arctic National Park.
