What about the new "softshell" clothing?

You can get some other gear advice from our partner site Alaska Adventure Center .

There's a piece on the "Gear" page discussing raingear and other outerwear.

What about tipping during the trip?

Adventure travel is a service industry and tips for good service are an important part of the guides' income for the season. You'll have your Exposure Guides looking after all of your needs for the duration of the trip and there may be other sub-contracted guides taking you rafting or fishing.

Gratuities are not required of course but 5-10% is appreciated by your hard-working guides.

For all dining included as part of your trip package, we take care of the gratuity.

Remember:

-- Complete and return the forms as soon as possible.

-- Send in your final payment.

-- Book your flights and Anchorage accommodation.

-- Get your equipment together.

-- Don't hesitate to contact us with any questions.
