Description

Alyeska, Alaska should be on your skiing bucket list- that is, if it’s not already! Surrounded by glaciers and located right by the sea, Alyeska is one of the world’s most scenic ski resorts. During this 8-day trip, I will take you to the best off-piste areas in Alyeska. Plus, we can enjoy ski touring and even heliskiing in the Chugach Mountains. So, why don’t you join me on an adventure in Alaska?

This trip is great for ski enthusiasts who want to practice a variety of different types of skiing, all in one convenient area. Depending on weather conditions and your desires, we can ski in Alyeska or ski tour the nearby area. We can even use a helicopter, plane, or snowcat to reach virgin slopes and incredible views. The program will include amazing runs with descents of 500 to 1700 m. Furthermore, many runs end just 100 m above sea level. You will have many once-in-a-lifetime skiing experiences going down very steep runs in extra-fluffy powder looking out over the ocean.

While enjoying the steep slopes and perfect powder, you will stay in a luxury 4-star hotel in the center of Alyeska. I know you will love relaxing in hotel’s spa and indoor pool after long days of skiing. As your guide, your comfort and safety is a big priority for me.

The beautiful seaside resort and its incredible backcountry ski areas will have you strapping on your skis the second you arrive in town. Plus, with endless possibilities for heliskiing and ski touring in the Chugach Mountains, you’ll wish this week-long trip would never end.

Please contact me if you are interested in this exciting ski trip in Alyeska. Guiding you around the beautiful Chugach Mountains would be my pleasure!

Ended up booking a one-night-and-one-day hike summiting Mt Shasta because Mt Rainier was booked out.

I really loved it. Intro to rock climbing was an amazing experience. Explore-share team were so helpful in the process. The trip that I chose in the first place was not available and they managed to find alternatives and offer me the best possible solution in that situation. In the end I had a wonderful day and could not be happier!

Guide cancelled within 48 hrs and I was unable to find someone else and so far I’ve not been refunded. Put a small dent in my otherwise great trip to Revelstoke.

It would have been helpful to know it was suppose to be a Matterhorn prep course. The goals of the group were a little different.
