We almost always see moose, mountain goats, bands of Dall sheep, and often bears. **WINTER TOURS** please note that this tour in some winter months may not land directly on top of the glacier due to snow cover and safety issues, landing may be on the side next to incredible deep blue ice formations (an equally spectacular experience)
