Chilkoot Trail & Valley of the Glaciers Via Helicopter

Experience the awesome beauty of Alaska's glaciers as you fly aboard a modern, turbine helicopter and land for a glacier walk. 

View the historic town of Skagway, once host to 20,000 prospectors, and Dyea, gateway to the tortuous Chilkoot Trail leading to the Klondike gold fields.  As you soar effortlessly over the mountain icescapes, you'll find it hard to believe that man once traversed this treacherous terrain on foot.  

Leave even these traces of civilization behind as your helicopter whisks you away to the Valley of the Glaciers. In this rugged expanse -accessible only by helicopter- see glaciers surrounded by towering mountain peaks.  Valley of the Glaciers, is a magical world frozen in time. 

Your pilot lands on a glacier and you have the rare opportunity to explore this incredible phenomenon.  A guide is on hand to answer your questions and explain the awesome forces at work.
