Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for the Exit Glacier Ice Climbing experience?

A: The age limit for the Exit Glacier Ice Climbing experience is typically 12 years and older, but it really depends on the individual's fitness level and comfort with heights. It’s always best to check directly with Kenai Backcountry Adventures to confirm their current policies and any specific guidelines they may have. They’re really helpful!

Q: Can I reschedule if the weather doesn't cooperate?

A: Yes! If the weather is bad and they have to cancel, you can definitely reschedule. Kenai Backcountry Adventures is pretty flexible with that and they want to make sure you have a great experience. Just make sure to keep an eye on their policy for cancellations and rescheduling, as it can change based on the season.

Q: What should I wear for ice climbing?

A: You’ll want to dress in layers! Warm, moisture-wicking base layers, an insulated mid-layer, and a waterproof outer shell are essential. Don’t forget gloves, a hat, and good hiking boots. The guides provide the climbing gear, but you need to be prepared for cold and wet conditions. Also, it’s a good idea to bring sunglasses for the glare off the ice!

Thinking of gifting the Exit Glacier Ice Climbing experience - any tips?

I’m looking at getting this ice climbing adventure for my boyfriend’s birthday. He’s athletic, but has never climbed before. Is it a good first-time experience? How did you like the food included? The turkey wrap sounds a bit boring but if the views are amazing, I think it’ll be worth it! Anyone have tips or stories?

Exit Glacier Ice Climbing - What’s the experience really like?

I just did the Exit Glacier Ice Climbing tour last week and wow, it was intense! The scenery was breathtaking, and the guides were awesome. They really made sure I felt safe, even when I was scaling those icy walls. Definitely wear good gloves—my hands got cold quick! I highly recommend this for anyone looking for an adventure!
