 Exploring Misty Fjords National Monument by seaplane
is an experience you'll never forget! Enjoy an exciting takeoff from
the bustling
Ketchikan waterfront as you embark on a scenic flight through the
Tongass National Forest and some of Alaska's most magnificent scenery.
You will glide over majestic fjords, cascading waterfalls, jewel-like
lakes, and abundant wildlife.
Best accessed by air, this vast untouched wilderness
was first identified in the journals of early explorer, Captain George
Vancouver,
when exploring Alaska in 1793. At the entrance of spectacular Rudyerd
Bay, your introduction to the monument is New Eddystone Rock, a striking
remnant of early geological activity. Your pilot will continue to
fly you over the glacier carved fjords, beautiful river valleys,
and
pristine
mountain lakes, identifying the scenic wonders during this once in
a lifetime adventure.
 From
the air, you can fully appreciate the dramatic beauty of the land
slowly crafted by the hands of nature over tens of thousands of years.
Massive glacial action carved the ice-rimmed wilderness of the Misty
Fjords. Marvel at sheer walls of granite rising over 3,000 feet,
and huge stands of lush spruce, hemlock and cedar clinging to snowcapped
peaks in this land of incredible natural beauty and rugged grandeur.
The monument is one of America's greatest treasures, and at 2.3 million
acres, is nearly four times the size of Rhode Island.
The dramatic Misty Fjords wilderness is home to
a multitude of wildlife. Watch for brown and black bear, Sitka black
tailed deer,
wolves, moose and bald eagles as your expert bush pilot guides you
safely over this paradise. Visible only by air, see the spectacular
1,000-foot waterfall flowing from Big Goat Lake, named for the region's
high concentration of mountain goat, that are often spotted from
the air. A highlight of your tour will be a gentle landing on a pristine
alpine
lake or remote fjord. Your pilot will invite you to step out onto
the pontoon to enjoy the fresh mountain air and the breathtaking
scenery that surrounds you.
