Gather your courage, channel your inner adventurer, and get ready for the ultimate outdoor escapade at Sheet'ká Treetop Aerial Ropes Adventure. Thirty different elements, rooted in the stories and traditions of the Tlingít people, will have you swinging, balancing, and soaring your way high above the forest floor. Bridges, cables, and ropes will put your balance and determination to the test.
Gear up and listen to safety instructions at the ground school. Then, with your trusty guide, hop on the xíxch' (frog) course, easing into the excitement with three warm-up elements.
Once you're feeling confident, it's time to level up to the yéil (raven) course, where you'll ascend to heights of 30+ feet to complete some obstacles.
After a quick breather back on solid ground, there's some heart-pounding action on the xóots (bear) course. Here, the challenges become even more intense and physically demanding.
The final set is the ch'áak (eagle) course. Climb to new heights for breathtaking views over the forest canopy before returning to earth via the auto-descent called the "Eagle's Flight" — an experience to remember.
