This
is Kigluaik Adventure's inaugural season:
Share in the exploration of the western extreme
Kigluaik
Adventures (Kig-loo-ake) is named after the mountain range lying
20 miles north of Nome, Alaska. This range was formed by a violent
thrust fault and the north aspects of the range present a challenging
terrain of couloirs, chutes, and nearly vertical faces. It was in
this range where the giant eagle (Tingmiakpuk) taught the Inupiat
Eskimo people the ceremonies and songs that have become their traditions.
Bering Straits Native Corporation, through Kigluaik Adventures,
is offering the unique opportunity for intrepid travelers to ski
at the westernmost fringe of the North American continent. Looking
west across Bering Strait, you’ll be able to gaze into tomorrow,
with Eastern Eurasia a mere 60 miles away. Truly, the West Ends
Here.
Single and multi-day snowcat excursions are available. You can arrange
an unguided trip by scheduling a drop off and pick up in the range
with Kigluaik Adventures. Early spring tundra tours are also available.
Other activities may include dog-sled rides, ice fishing for arctic
char and northern pike, cultural tours, and viewing of musk ox,
caribou, moose, bears and other Arctic fauna in this pristine region.
