The Russell Fjord Tour The Russell Fjord Tour takes you from Yakutat up the Situk River into the southern end of Russell Fjord. From there, you will fly up the fiord through lush green mountains to the largest tidewater glacier in North America, the Hubbard Glacier. You then travel south over Disenchantment and Yakutat Bays, and return to the airport.

The Grand Russell Fjord Tour
The Grand Russell Fjord Tour takes you over the Yakutat forelands, where bear and moose are commonly seen, to Harlequin Lake. At the head of Harlequin Lake is the Yakutat Glacier, which has the widest face of any lake-calving glacier in North America.

You will then fly over the Novatak and Nunatak Glaciers into the Nunatak Fjord where you will have an excellent chance to see mountain goats. From here, you'll fly over the Orange Glacier to the Hubbard Glacier. Turner and Valerie Glaciers are also visible from this point, along with numerous well known mountains in Wrangell-St. Elias National Park. The St. Elias Mountain Range is the highest coastal mountain range in the world - we guarantee that you've never seen anything like it.
