5.00My daughter and I were delighted. You could tell the dogs were happy to be out pulling the sled. It's a great opportunity to pet the dogs; they let themselves be loved. The guys were very friendly and attentive. The helicopter ride affords you spectacular views of Seward, the glacier, and the mountains.
