Board a small ski-equipped plane for a flight over glaciers and granite spires, landing on a remote icefield for a champagne toast few travelers ever experience.
What to expect
Your bush pilot narrates the terrain as you climb past glaciers, crevasse fields, and (weather permitting) the summit of Denali itself. The plane's skis touch down on a remote glacier where you can step out onto the snowpack in total silence. Photos and a short walk on the ice precede the return flight over braided rivers and forest.

Good to know
This excursion is best from Seward or Whittier ports with transfer time to Talkeetna factored in — plan for a full day and confirm flexibility for weather delays. Dress in layers; landings are weather-dependent and occasionally rescheduled.
