Unique insight into the natural beauty of Alaska - Don was our tour guide. He was excellent. Very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. We learned a lot on an off-the-beaten track experience: red squirrel, ptarmigan, peregrine falcon all crossed our path as we looked closely at the trees, plants and (especially amazing) fungi. Unreservedly recommended for anyone who wants to connect with the natural world of Alaska.

Wonderful and Enjoyable Off Trail Hike - My wife and I went for an off trail hike with Don in late August. We had a great, informative and enjoyable experience with Don. Don was very knowledgeable about the fauna and plants he described and we saw during the hike. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Amazing walk in the woods - My naturalist hike with Jade was amazing! We got to cover a lot of ground and I learned so much about the native flora and fauna. There is so much biodiversity in Denali and I’m glad to have learned more about it.

Go off trail with Northern Epics - The BEST way to experience Alaska near Denali! Derek led our group, and was an incredible source of knowledge about the forest: flora and fauna. A hike filled with interesting, enthusiastic, facts and first hand stories that make you want to get outside more. As a solo, first timer to Alaska, I also appreciated his suggestions for the rest of my time in the state. I highly recommend Derek and this company.

Off-trail guided walk in Denali, - My wife and I had a thoroughly enjoyable and informative guided walk, off-trail and through the undergrowth. Our guide, Derek, was very friendly and was happy chatting to us as we strolled and answering the many many questions I had. He was clearly very knowledgeable about the local flora, fauna and geology. The walk took in an excellent view point above the Nenana river and it was nice to see the Snowshoe Hare close up. Parts of the walk had tricky ground underfoot and some small climbs (up and down) were quite steep, but Derek seemed happy to let us take our merry own time to stumble up behind him. Overall, a great way to spend a few hours and see a bit of Alaska off the beaten track.

Off-Trail Adventure - Derek had great energy and knowledge! From the first moment it was obvious to us that Derek wanted to make sure we had a wonderful experience. He certainly succeeded in providing that. To be truly off-trail was an adventure we could not have done on our own. Recommend this highly.
