True Alaskan Adventure

Denesia_H, Apr 2025

Mike was a phenomenal guide on our snow shoe hike adventure today. It was actively snowing on us all day as we hiked about 3.5 miles in and out of hemlock forests, easily maneuvering over snow drifts and mountain terrain. We loved this experience... it was perfect for us, away from crowds, alone in Alaskan wilderness with someone who made us feel safe and took our interests and likes into account as he scouted out our route along the base of Flattop mountain. Highly recommend Mike for any hike.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Thank you, Denesia! Thanks for letting people know about your experience with your guide, Mike, about the environment, solitude, safety, and customization. That goes along way in telling people what they can expect when they book a tour with us. Thanks again!

This was a great...

This was a great adventure. Matt was great and I highly recommend it. Amazing area to snowshoe. GoAlaska provided excellent info for preparation, especially how to dress in the cold.
