The Gates of the Arctic National Park is 8.3 million acres of wilderness free of roads and even ranger stations. Within it lies a sizeable chunk of the Brooks Range, 700 miles of mountains representing the farthest reaches of the Rocky Mountains. The best way to see it is by bush plane. On this trip a privately-chartered pilot and floatplane meet you and your guide shortly after breakfast for four hours of hiking and flight seeing over some of the most stunning scenery the Gates of the Arctic National Park has to offer.
The outlet of Iniakuk Lake is the starting point for this leisurely four to six-hour Wild & Scenic float trip which peacefully carries you along three different rivers as it winds through grizzly bear country on the southern edge of the Brooks Range. We’ll stop and have lunch on a gravel bar mid-way through the float and you will experience river travel, one of the best ways to see both the animals and landscape of the Far North. At the end of your trip, a privately-chartered floatplane swoops in and flies you back to The Lodge. This float is the perfect compliment to a three-night stay at Iniakuk Lake Wilderness Lodge, requires minimum experience and is appropriate for all fitness levels.
