Gold panning offers a great way for folks of all ages to get outdoors and helps you really get in to the history of this great state.

Winter Motorhome life at Alaska SnowboardGuides/ASG HeliSkiiing is a wonderful experience. Before the Lodges on the pass were renovated enthusiastic skiers and snowboarders came to Valdez with motorhomes they rented in Anchorage on their annual pilgrimage to the epicenter of big mountain skiing and snowboarding. With the recent lodge renovations on Thompson Pass, came price tags most cannot afford, prices that compare with Canadian heliski weeks are out of the budgets of many skiers and snowboarders. ASG offers a much less expensive lodge package but perhaps more notably the “ClassicPackage”. The Classic is designed for RV’s, ASG is the only operator in Valdez that offers a package specifically for motorhomes and it is less than half the cost of the high end lodge packages offered by its competitors. This package harkens back to the original days of the Valdez Heli scene when skiers and snowboarder live in RVS for weeks on end on Thompson pass. Staying at ASG’s base and hanging out in warm yurts sleeping in your motorhome Heliskiiing and Heliboarding is a truly unique Alaskan Adventure. Get out there this season! http://www.alaskasnowboardguides.com
