Photographers dream! Bear Glacier Lake is the result of Bear Glacier retreating from the terminal moraine which actually was the beach at the ocean. This area is home to some of the largest Black Bears, Goats, harbor seals, wolves, wolverine, and a multitude of other wildlife. The area is home to many of the wildflowers and is home to many of Alaska's berries. This lake are is generally cooler than that of Seward and we encourage everyone that visits Bear Glacier to prepare for a cooler, some times wet experience.
Adventure Sixty North accesses Bear Glacier area by Heli service provided by Pollux aviation inc. in R44 4 person helicopters. Enjoy amazing flightseeing while you fly along the coast and into to the remote glacier area.
Comments from our guests never cease to amaze us, such as Amazing, I have never seen anything like this, This would certainly be one of the 10 wonders, how will I ever explain what I have seen today? Will anyone believe me or even understand, and the always present " Pictures just don't do it justice"
We hope that you also will judge for yourself and also leave amazed by the grandness of it all.

"I'm sure there's a lot of good kayaking to be done from Seward, but I can't imagine a better experience than the trip to Bear Glacier my wife and I took with Adventure60. If we ever return to Seward, we've agreed to do the same trip again! "
