    Mark and his team have built something truly special here, and it shows in every aspect of the experience. As owner and pilot, Mark clearly loves what he does, sharing his passion for Alaska's glaciers through smooth, cinematic flights that put even nervous flyers at ease. The tours include actual glacier landings where you can walk on ancient ice, explore blue meltwater pools, and take in views that guests consistently describe as life-changing. Wildlife sightings of moose and bears add an extra thrill to the journey. What really stands out is the personal, family-run feel of the operation. Multiple couples chose this provider for their elopement packages, praising Mark's skills as pilot, photographer, and officiant all in one. The staff goes above and beyond to accommodate special requests and fix booking mix-ups, treating each guest like they genuinely matter. First-time helicopter riders feel safe and cared for, while adventure seekers get customized routes to see exactly what they want. This is consistently called the highlight of people's Alaska trips, and the enthusiasm in these reviews makes it easy to see why.

    We got married at Sheep Mountain Air (Diamond Elopement Package). We had an incredible experience and would not have wanted our wedding any other way! The staff communicated all details and answered our questions quickly and clearly. Mark was an excellent officiant photographer and helicopter pilot. The views from the trip and the pictures are exceptional. We are so happy with how everything turned out and grateful to all of the staff that made our wedding day perfect.
