Winter Mushing Adventures

 

If you're Brave enough to visit Alaska in the winter, we'll give you the full experience!  These tours are the real thing. Every run is helping train the dogs for the iditarod, and every dog either has or will race.  Accessible for all adventurers, regardless of ability level.

 

Exit Glacier by dog team

November-April weather permitting

 

Learn to drive a dog team!  Mush a dog team down Resurrection River Valley right to Exit Glacier.  The road is closed in the winter, so dog team is one of the only ways you can see the glacier in the winter.  The trail is wide and easy to maneuver, so anyone can learn.  We'll stop at the glacier and enjoy a trail lunch and hot chocolate.  Make sure you bring your camera - the scenery is incredible, and we often see moose and eagles.  This is our favorite tour; you really get to experience the Alaskan wilderness, and will leave with a good understanding and appreciation of sled dogs. 

Duration: 3.5 hours

Price: $249/pp

Includes: Lunch, drinks, and dogs
