While there are many different types of adventures you can easily
take in Alaska, we hereby offer the following guides to help
you take on more adventureous challenges. Please, consult with
guides and knowledgable people before trying any serious adventure
in Alaska. Nature does not often give second chances. For horseback riding, hunting and fishing excursions in the heart of Alaska you would be hard-pressed to do better than talking with Less and Norma Cobb at their Lost Creek Ranch. Phone: 1-907-672-3999. With bunkhouses, home-cooked meals and tall tales that (we think) are as big as Alaska itself, the Cobbs aim to please. Although Alaska's majestic and scenic Wrangell/St. Elias National Park may be remote and rugged, the ease of getting there is improving daily. Howard Mozen of Copper Oar River Rafting not only has a toll-free phone number, 1-800-523-4453, but he can be e-mailed at howmoz@aol.com. |
For skiing, mountain climbing or flightseeing deep in
Alaska's majestic and scenic Wrangell/St. Elias National Park
