Town to Glacier Traverse in Detail.

Overview

This day hike begins with a helicopter ride up to the alpine of the Chugach mountains behind Valdez. From there we begin a two mile journey exploring along the way, taking in the sights and enjoying the isolation. The hiking is fairly easy for most travelers, however there is no trail and hiking can contain side hilling and uneven terrain. In early June the path can contain snowfields.

Animal sightings on this tour can include; mountain goat, bear, marmot, arctic ground squirrel, pika, ptarmigan and eagles.
