Day 1
The
Super Cub
will drop you off on the white ice of a
Chugach Mountain
glacier, an awesome experience. A
short walk will bring you
safely to the lateral moraine of the glacier. Or, if you desire,
several hours may be spent exploring glacier terrain. Walk where
no one has walked before as new terra-firma is revealed, glacier
streams are formed, and rocks are moved, all in response to the
glaciers melting and moving. Afterward, traverse the length of
an Iceberg Lake and enjoy the very
rare experience of walking amongst mammoth icebergs abandoned as the lake drained beneath them. End the day by setting up
camp near a mountain stream on the valley floor below neighboring Moulan Glacier.
Day 2
On this day, several options are available. You might choose to spend more time with the ice bergs, explore
Moulan Glacier, or just lie in the sun and enjoy a book. In the afternoon make your way up the 1500’ pass while enjoying
the views of neighboring glaciers and waterfalls. Camp will be made alongside a small mountain lake, where the panorama
is surreal.
Day 3
Enjoy a relaxing last day in the wilderness as you make your way over the pass. Descend into a large river
drainage to the strip for an afternoon pickup by a
Super Cub. A scenic flight over your route will deliver you safely
back to the airstrip.
