I worked with AMG in the ATV program 2017. Although they provide experiences for all outdoor adventure -You want an experience of a life time they will provide! But I'll focus on the ATV program- This was the first year the ATV program has been run and there were some startup learning experiences nothing out of the ordinary but it was an incredible time never the less! I loved meeting new people everyday and showing them the time of their life in the last frontier! I facilitated so many people's check off their bucket list and incouraged so many more to get excited about the outdoors. I dedicated myself to learning as much as I could to answer any question guests had about this incredible place. This place captivates your heart with the local small town vibe- untouched by the facade of tourism, instead it's a real Alaskan small town. Your imagination comes to life with Salmon, Eagles, Bears, Mountain Goats and Moose sighted just about every week! (Sometimes five times in a day, with eagles soaring over 50 a lot of days on the raft tour!) Some Whales, Fox, Wolf, Hawks/Falcons, Wolverine, and weasels- memorable sightings although less often, just as amazing! The only down side to this amazing little town is it is pretty expensive as far as food goes... A bit costly to get refrigerated items up from Seattle. Awesome local eats though! On the note of employment- AMG has a dedicated team of knowledgeable guides that enjoy adventuring with fellow guides of all skill levels with any free time available! I was able to kayak, raft, climb rock and glacier, take UTVs to the top of a nearly unreachable mountain, hop on some boats, go fishing and hunting, the list goes on and on! My first time ice climbing into a glacial cave was unforgettable! Some things to be prepared for are sometimes the mosquitos aren't fun if you don't come prepared! I brought my own water jug to collect my fresh water from the springs just outside of town which was perfect for me. Bring or buy a squirrel proof place to put all of your food!!! Keep in mind while packing it does RAIN in SE Alaska bring good rain gear and foot wear also I bought baking soda to prevent mold in my cooler of food. I thought it was great to have my own dishes too (personal preference) They provided us with a place to camp (tent or RV style they'll work with whatever you have) for $2/night which goes to propane for the kitchen busses and wifi we have access to. The property had two restrooms and a shower facility in the warehouse (the hot water only ran out two times in nearly six months with about 30guides but the shower did have to have maintenance a couple times. Sometimes you want to go to a friends house or use the gym showers if you're in need right then. There was also a pretty busy "guide room" that has wifi for classes or social media etc. but you can not download movies so be sure to bring whatever you want to have! We would all enjoy a company provided dinner together every Wednesday night! Sometimes a guide get together dinner Sunday's and fun runs to enjoy all the other activities available. I have met some life long friends and adventure buddies through my experiences there! Thank you all for the laughs and unforgettable experiences!!! -Berry Joe and Kiki were the best guides ever they are the reason we will come back. They helped my son when he was scared to zip line and rock climb and rappel. We are so grateful and thankful. p.s Good like Kiki and Joe if your reading this Adventure Land/Zip Lining - This was our first experience doing this. Kudos to our instructors Matt & Will who were very supportive and safety cautious. The Adventure land was a little nerve wracking but we made it through there (slowly) but the zip line experience was great. The small group was good too as it made it easier not having to wait a long time in between stations. I had the most beautiful and amazing three weeks of my life with AMG. My guides were Gloria, Becky, Becca, Autumn and Tatiana and I couldn't have asked for anything better from my experience.
