The Jeep® portion of your tour concludes with your arrival at Lake Harriet Hunt. Here, you’ll experience a unique ecosystem from the vantage point of a 37-foot, Alaska Native-style canoe. These traditional Alaskan canoes are fast, stable, and easy to maneuver. Once on the other side of the lake, your expert guide will lead you to a camp on shore where an Alaskan snack awaits. Next, your guide will interpret the features of the temperate rainforest on a nature walk through the old-growth forest. Your excursion concludes with a scenic motor coach drive back to the pier.
