Gain insight into one of the unique environmental engines that power the planet, and you may discover that the mass-balance of a glacial system echo’s into all aspects of life!

Customer's Opinions

Marina, Russia, Chelyabinsk
Alaska once belonged to Russian Federation. They say there are aa lot of russians there now. Our guide from the company Above & Beyond Alaska showed us Russian church - very modest, but with a surprising garden around. All people who live there are in love with that place, in spite of 300 rainy days in a year and shortage of a sun. There is incomparable nature in Alaska. I am very grateful to Above & Beyond Alaska for a magnificent organization of our tour on earth of Alasca.
