Black Rapids Glacier Traverse (Float + Hike)
What to Expect
This trip is an unforgettable journey into one of the wildest corridors of the Eastern Alaska Range. Starting with a paddle across the mighty Delta River, we shoulder our packs and head up the valley of Black Rapids Creek — following glacial meltwater upstream until we reach the massive terminus of Black Rapids Glacier. The 8-mile one-way route cuts deep into raw Alaskan wilderness, with rugged terrain, cascading waterfalls, and wide-open views of ice-covered peaks. This hike is for strong adventurers looking for a full-day challenge or a richly rewarding overnight backpacking adventure.
