This was one of our favorite experiences during our Alaska travels. Iris is such a kind, smart, unique person, and it was awesome to get to hear her stories and see how she lives her life off grid with her dogs. She even took the time to show us her photos and videos from winter life on her homestead. We also did one of the big dog sledding tours that we booked from our cruise/bus trip, but we enjoyed our time with Iris much more. The experience was more personal and we learned so much more about what life is really like in off grid Alaska. We left feeling so inspired. If you have a chance to do this tour…just do it!
