About operator:

Combine a helicopter flight, dogsled tour, and guided glacier walk for a multi-activity excursion you’re unlikely to experience elsewhere. Let someone else deal with the logistics while you enjoy aerial views of the glacier, before exploring its crevasses and melt pools. Plus, spend time with Alaskan sled dogs, for an experience few travelers get to enjoy.
