Alaska’s weather can be unpredictable, so dressing in layers is crucial. Even in summer, temperatures can vary significantly. A waterproof jacket, sturdy boots, and thermal layers are recommended to keep you comfortable during your helicopter tour. For winter tours, additional insulated layers and gloves are essential. Our Knik Glacier Helicopter Tour provides specific clothing recommendations to ensure you’re well-prepared for the conditions.
