No experience necessary! We provide expert guides and all your gear to explore this glacier.
What makes this glacier so special for this kind of activity? The easily accessible face is not abrupt, and the frontal ice formations have many safe routes through spectacular views of crevasses, caves and surface ponds.

All you need is a sense of adventure, some suggested personal clothing, hiking boots and snacks.
Combine this trip with a Matanuska River whitewater raft trip (Lion Head) for a full days outing at a discount.
