"This walking adventure/tour was one of the highlights of our inland enjoyment of Alaska. Howard, our guide, had a love and respect for the land that he so easily and naturally conveyed to us. His knowledge was shared so very comfortably that we left feeling enriched. We had fun, we laughed, and we departed all the better for our hike." -Fred and Carol Flach, Chesapeake, VA

"I just had to write you and tell you how much my husband and I enjoyed the Talkeetna Lake hike with our nature guide Julie. The lake was beautiful, the hike very relaxing, and getting to know Julie was very enlightening.  Along with the flower and fauna, she shared a few of the challenges Alaskans have with daily life.  I don't believe the hike would have been nearly as interesting if it wasn't for her kindness and her ability to share.  If you see her, please tell her that Esther & AG from Charleston WV send regards.""Joelle was fabulous. Tour was wonderful. All of us loved it." -Berdy family (x4)!!!
