What to Wear for Day Tours

Clothing: comfortable, lightweight, and functional clothes are important for Alaskan wilderness travelers, who can be exposed to all types of weather conditions. A layered approach to clothing works best in Alaska, with summer temperatures that can range from the 50's to 80's during the long summer days.

  • Jacket - fleece is great, it is light, warm, dries quickly if wet and can be worn under your rain jacket.
  • Light weight rain gear - we highly recommend a jacket and pants.
  • Gloves - a light weight pair or a of pair synthetic glove liners.
  • Hat - baseball cap or stocking cap.
  • Footwear - we will supply rubber boots for you to wear.
