Knik Glacier Trip

Offroading is a huge sport in Alaska. We were lucky enough to find a group to show us around. I'm sure you can guess that the weather in Alaska is a bit extreme so safety is very important. Going out alone can be deadly so we run in groups. This trail isn't particularly hard, but has some of the best scenery. It took us about 3 hours to plow our way through the snow and arrive at the glacier. There were some tricky spots and the creek crossing swallowed a full sized Suburban, but we all made it in and out safely. This is one of very few Glaciers that you can drive up to and on in Alaska. This route can only be done in the winter when the creeks and rivers are frozen.
