Combine helicopter flightseeing with the experience of dog sledding on a glacier.
After flying over spectacular glaciers, you will land at a dog camp atop a majestic glacier above Skagway. Meet the professional mushers and friendly dogs that have made the Iditarod dog race a world-famous event.
Experienced guides will introduce you to the world of dog sledding. The young and young-at-heart can stand on the sled and help mush; others can simply relax and observe the breathtaking environment.
