Icefield Expeditions
Alaska Icefield Expeditions was founded by Dan and Chris
Turner, who run the oldest operating sled dog tour company
in Southeast Alaska. We have been mushers for many years,
driving dogs recreationally on camping trips, participating
in two Yukon Quest sled dogs races and offering winter
and summer tours to visitors to Alaska. During the summer
of 1995 we were on special assignment doing a two week
trek across the Juneau Icefield with famed Japanese adventurer,
Joshi Wada. The vast remote reaches of the icefield were
incredible and the trip was a great success for the dog
teams. The idea of summer glacier dogsledding was born.
We are excited for the opportunity to share our dogteam
and this magnificent country with you.
Over the years our glacier team has grown and is available
in Juneau on the famous Mendenhall Glacier and in Skagway
at the Denver Glacier dog camp. There are 25 people and
250 Alaskan husky sled dogs in each camp. It is a way
of life for our mushers and sled dogs to live in "dog
camp" during the summer—keeping in shape, raising
puppies, preparing for winter racing and camping trips.
Having guests to share this great adventure with is a
bonus.
