The Glacier Explorer Canoe Trip
 Join us on the Alaska Railroad for a beautiful ride into the Placer Valley.  A train will drop you off in a pristine wilderness where a spectacular lake and glacier await your discovery.  No roads lead to Spencer Lake, so be prepared for a true Alaskan experience.  We start the tour with a hearty, deli style lunch on the banks of the ice berg filled lake,   The incredible surroundings provide intoxicating views of the massive glacier and ice wall. 
After lunch, your guide will prepare you for an exploration of the lake.  Paddle these sleek and elegant boats up to the ice face for a close up view of ice caves and crevasses.  The boats are modern designs of Native Alaskan dugout canoes, which provide for a comfortable and safe way to navigate the chilly waters.  We will stop on the shore near the ice face and hike up to the glacier.  From here you will be able to look over miles and miles of ice.  Learn glaciology as you gaze upon the kettles and moulans.  This trip has astounding views and an old world experience you can get nowhere else in Alaska.

This trip is four hours and is appropriate for all ages.  All gear is provided for a safge comfortable trip.  Those not wishing to exert themselves may find our Spencer Rafting trip more appropriate.
