This was such a unique and breathtaking way to explore Alaska and get a little bit closer to a Glacier. Backcountry Adventures was so accommodating with our young children offering car seats and helmets. They were also kind throughout the entire experience, providing clear instructions about how to operate a side by side, stopping to show us things they thought we’d enjoy seeing, and helping us to get cleaned up after. Next time we travel to Alaska, I’d love to do this again.
