JUNE

June 28 through July 13 - Alsek River in the Alaska and the Yukon. Offered through Mountain Travel Sobek/Alaska Discovery. This special 16-day journey takes us down the Alsek River through the St. Elias Range almost to the Pacific Ocean. The leisurely pace will allow for plenty of time for hiking and exploration, and to watch for wildlife, such as grizzly and wolves. This is a wonderful trip on 18 foot oar boats through the last great North American wilderness, and an incredibly special place. Wildlife, amazing flowers, scenery, and a place so wild that most of it has never seen human footprints. It's not for everyone, but if you think you would like to be a part of such an adventure, please contact This Earth for information.
