Anxiety can be a normal reaction to pushing your limits both physically and mentally. First, don’t worry, you’re harnessed in and totally safe. To overcome fear and anxiety, slow down, take deep breaths and close your eyes. Focus on slowing your breathing and lowering your heart rate, this technique is called box breathing. Once you’re ready, continue onward,and remember, YOU GOT THIS!

Of course! A couple of things to note: we recommend bringing a bungee or tether for your phone. If you drop your phone, there’s no way to retrieve it. Please hold on tight, as your phone is unlikely to survive the fall.

Weather is always a potential when recreating in the mountains of Alaska and it’s something we take very seriously. We have an operational threshold for cancellation which includes high wind, rain, lightning and snow. In the event of a cancellation, we will do our best to move you to a different day during your stay. If we are not able to get you on a tour, we will refund your payment.

Ensure you’re ready for the adventure with a windproof/rainproof jacket, layered clothing, a compact backpack, water, and a snack.
