Roughly
28 miles long, the Knik Glacier is about 35 miles northeast of
Anchorage and 7 miles southeast of Palmer. Enjoy the comfort of our
covered and heated river boats as you experience an informative, fun
filled voyage that takes you to the face of this magnificent glacier
which is nearly 6 miles wide, and in places over 1000 feet thick. You
will travel up the Knik River while taking in the breathtaking beauty.
Look for mountain goats, Dall sheep, black bear, eagles, moose, beavers
and many other smaller varieties of wildlife. Migratory water fowl also
visit the valley as a major fly-away. Sandhill cranes, Canadian geese,
snow geese and families of trumpeter swans return each year.
At the Glacier your guide will
educate you on the local flora and fauna. Enjoy a light snack while
viewing the ever changing glacial decent of this massive glacier formed
over 600,000 years ago.
