Your itinerary is flexible and we will discuss options and offer our suggestions after meeting and determining your expectations and making a survey of current weather conditions and expected weather conditions that we will have during the adventure. Rain is and can be a part of any trip here in Alaska and we ask that you come prepared to paddle in challenging conditions if they arise and make sure that your clothing and rain wear is good quality.
Some of our trips have had rain much of the time and with the adequate gear and attitudes we have had lots of fun and viewed lots of wildlife.
We also suggest that you consider trip insurance in case of weather and marine warnings force a trip to be canceled or terminated early.. We provide rubber boots, and gloves to all of our guests. Rain gear is a must even if good weather is predicted..It happens sometimes that the conditions change quickly here in remote Alaska forcing changes and adjustments in itineraries and plans>.
Truly one of the more adventurous overnight trips in a remote and isolated area of the Kenai Fjords National Park. We encourage anyone joining any of our adventures to this area of the park to include a few extra days into their itinerary to allow for weather delays in either your departure or pickup to and from this remote area.
The trip departs from our office outside of Seward, with a gear check out and a briefing. We board a landing craft water taxi and depart for Northwestern fjord. While we enjoy our journey out in the bay and outside of the bay we often enjoy the Dall's porpoises bow riding along with our boat. Occasionally we observe Humpback whales, Orcas, Puffins, and Harbor seals along the way. Bear resistant food containers are located at this area.
This area is home to a large population of Black Bears also Brown Bears occasionally. ( our guides will carry bear spray for personal protection )
Our MSR tents have proven to handle the elements that we encounter while adventuring in this wilderness.
Join us as we explore newly exposed formations as the ice retreats, this yearly process exposes never before seen land forms and creates amazing new paddle locations. As the ice retreats year to year we are provided a view prehistoric rock shapes and views of what was once hidden by layers of snow and ice. This is a everchanging world that few get the opportunity to see in such a remote and beautiful area.
