Adventure Stories

Three Days at Spencer Glacier
Spencer Glacier is a relatively accessible and spectacular location in the Alaska backcountry that is accessed from a whistle stop off the Alaska Railroad. With a stunning glacier, and lake dotted with icebergs, it is hard to image a more ideal location for backpacking, packrafting, SUPing and more. Read about our adventure and watch the film.
