Alaska Range Ski Expedition

The Pika Glacier (Also known as Little Switzerland) offers a few different zones for day trips from basecamp - each zone boasting dozens of lines. As with any ski expedition, what we specifically ski will depend on conditions and the ability/goals of the group. For those wanting an even greater “adventure factor” we can utilize snow shelters for a multi-day ski traverse to ski even wilder zones before returning to basecamp.

Season

Conditions are generally good for ski expeditions in the Alaska Range from early April to early May. Exact dates depend greatly on the objective.

Group Size

This is a private program, no one else will be paired with your party. If your group is larger than 2, we apply a group discount and additional guides are added to keep the guest to guide ratio at 2:1 or lower.

Time and Place

This is a custom program. Each expedition will depart from Talkeetna, AK in a bush plane and will spend generally 8-12 days on the glacier depending on the goals and abilities of the climber.

Equipment List

All the technical climbing equipment and group expedition camping equipment required for this outing is included.
