Alaska abounds with wilderness on a scale unmatched in the Lower 48. With 17 of the 20 highest peaks in North America, 100,000 glaciers, some 9,000 rivers and 3 million lakes, Alaska supports a tremendous abundance of wildlife—moose, caribou, Dall sheep, wolves, whales, puffins, bald eagles, sea lions, sea otters…and 30,000 brown bears. All of our small-group adventures and Photo Expeditions offer exciting bear viewing, and much more. You won’t find a more authentic encounter with wild Alaska!
