No roads lead to the Knik Glacier.
Knik Glacier is located on the northern edge of Alaska's Chugach mountains. Over 28 miles long and 5 miles across this is one of central Alaska's greatest rivers of ice. Often referred to as Alaska's 'sunny glacier'. A unique microclimate or
"rain shadow" has created a truly diverse ecosystem.
For over a decade Hollywood has been
focused in on the Knik. Many documentaries, commercials, music videos, and even reality TV have used the Knik Glacier as an other worldy backdrop. Every year film crews arrive trying to capture the areas timeless beauty on film.
Knik Glacier has been patiently carving these mountains for thousands of years. The 28 mile river of ice continues to grind its way down the mountain. The sound of white thunder echoes through the air. Knik Glacier "Master sculptor" is patiently creating a masterpiece.
