However, Alaska’s weather can be unpredictable, so it’s essential to check the local forecast before planning your trip. When visiting areas like Knik Glacier or Prince William Sound, expect varying conditions that can change rapidly.
What to Wear
Dressing appropriately for helicopter tours in Alaska is crucial. Layering is key, as temperatures can vary significantly. Start with a moisture-wicking base layer, followed by insulating layers and a waterproof outer shell. Don’t forget gloves, a hat, and sturdy footwear.

Photography Tips
Capturing Alaska’s beauty from a helicopter requires some preparation. Use a fast shutter speed to minimize blur, and consider a polarizing filter to reduce glare.
