Great helicopter ride - Great time the pilot was an excellent guide and found bears, moose, and mountain goats for us to view. He also explained the various glacier formations and changes he has seen, including a recent avalanche site.

Amazing Experience - Terrific staff, skilled and personable pilot. We saw moose and circled around to get a better look and great photos. The mountains and glaciers are stunning when seen from a bird's eye view. I highly recommend doing this. The cost is worth it.

Epic - A really cool experience, especially if you love the outdoors. Saw about 12 moose from above—it’s an epic thing to do. Helicopter is small.

New Year's Eve - The trip was absolutely wonderful! Our family took two helicopters out to the glaciers, and both pilots were awesome! They were super knowledgeable about the area, super friendly, and great photographers when we got to the glacier! Everyone at the hangar was so friendly and helpful, and made the experience one that I know we'll never forget! 10 out of 10 would recommend for everyone!
