Alaska West Express

If you and the family already know how to ski, great. If you don't, a great place to learn and enjoy all the fun that goes with it is the Alyeska Resort. The resort features skiing during the winter months, and a great variety of other activities the whole family will love like mountain biking, hiking, scenic rides in the sky and much more. So stay at the hotel and plan your Alaskan adventure with the help of the friendly and professional staff at Alyeska Resort.

Sometimes, a bird's eye view is the best way to get a look at an area as picturesque and expansive as Alaska. The Wings Aero Tours allows you to get that perspective on a flying tour of the area. Some of the many highlights include soaring over Mt. McKinley, Prince William Sound, Kenai Fjords, glaciers, mountains and valleys. You'll see all of these natural wonders and more from the comfort of an Alaskan Floatplane. Don't forget to look for some of the area's incredible wildlife like Dall sheep, moose, bears, birds, marine wildlife and more among the many rivers, lakes and dense forests.

If you have a motorboat, want to go jet skiing or enjoy other water sports, the Mat-Su Valley just north of Anchorage is a highly popular destination to enjoy that brand of aquatic adventure. There is also the very popular Nancy Lakes Recreation Area where you can light out on your own or perhaps take a jet boat tour of the northern and southern parts of Anchorage.
