My goal is to help you explore an Alaska that you would
never see on a conventional vacation or tour. Dates can often be adjusted.
Discounts for Trout Unlimited and other conservation organizations apply.
State of the art- expedition- camping gear by Mountain Hardware, NorthFace,
MSR, Cascade Designs etc. is provided and you are welcome to bring your
own favorite gear or accessories.

Group sizes are kept small, 2-6 people make a good
group. These are wilderness trips and larger groups have a way of obscuring
the qualities of solitude we have traveled so far to experience. Family
trips can be somewhat larger because of the great pleasure in a multi-generation
outing. Parent / child trips are Mark’s specialty and can be a wonderful
way to celebrate the family bond and share an adventure. The smaller groups
have the advantage of being able to travel less encumbered with gear and
consequently to places unattainable by the general public. A single adventuresome
fisherman plus Mark have the ultimate flexibility to fish remote waters.
Some call this solo pursuit with Mark "extreme fishing". Costs
for single "extreme-fishermen" are negotiated according to our
estimated transport & gear costs for the target watershed plus 10%.
There are no hidden costs. We estimate these logistic costs accurately.
