In the afternoon, join a jet boat tour to travel into the wilderness on the Talkeetna, Chulitna, and Susitna rivers. When you’re not navigating whitewater, naturalists will acquaint you with the wildlife and wildflowers you spot on shore. Accommodations are at the Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge, Mountainside Room.
