You Are Not A Passenger - Exciting Alaska News - May 1, 2010

We're excited to announce that our Twin Lakes Paddle combination kayaking and hiking trip in Lake Clark National Park has been awarded one of National Geographic "50 Tours of a Lifetime" in the May/June issue of Traveler Magazine!

In addition to being the only outfitter listed in Alaska, we are also one of only 6 companies listed in all of North America. Furthermore, the photo above (one that I took in 2003) is featured both online and in the magazine. Here's what National Geographic has to say:

"Travelers now seek more perspective, meaning, and challenge. They want to see the unvarnished reality of a place, not just the fantasy. Outfitters have responded by dialing down the luxury and refocusing on core offerings. Their itineraries are more innovative and experiential?aimed at developing lasting connections between people. These guided tours are part of National Geographic Traveler's 50 Tours of a Lifetime for 2010 for the outfitters' commitment to authenticity, immersion, sustainability, and connection."

We are again truly honored and humbled to be recognized by National Geographic. And if you haven't been to Twin Lakes yet, now's the time!
