- We know not everyone travels with extreme weather gear. We provide boots, gloves, jackets and even snow pants to keep you cozy on the ride at no extra cost. Come dressed as warm as possible and we'll handle the rest.
- Get to know our team. We allot plenty of time for you to meet our dogs. They are all well trained and super friendly and greet you upon your arrival with barks of joy. They love to be petted.
- A warm greeting next to a crackling fireplace where we gear you up for your adventure and give you the rundown of what will take place. And most likely Bill will show you some trophies, he's humble but proud.
- We give everyone the opportunity to ride the tag sled where you stand and help drive the team. It's safe and fun and people of all ages enjoy it.
- When the ride ends and you have snow on your lashes and a smile on your face we bring you back to the toasty fireplace for hot drinks.
- We offer a discount for military. Please give us a call for more info on rates.
- And since our home is our business, we never rush you. We advise to add an extra half hour to your tour time to stay and share stories over a cup of cocoa. But with all to see in Alaska, we understand if you need to go explore.
