We used Nova to book a combo package of two experiences: the Matanuska Glacier Adventure Trek, and Six Mile Creek 3 Canyon Whitewater Rafting. Both were awesome! Our guide for the glacier trek, Coffey, did a great job of making sure safety was the first priority, while also allowing good opportunities for exploration and adventure on the glacier. We got to try some harnessed ice climbing for the first time, including being lowered partially into a chasm/crevasse, and rappelling down the side of a long ice face. This is a great trek to do if you want a little sampler of some of the more advanced, technical ice skills, while also having a chance to do some basic glacier hiking. We weren’t sure whether to do the 3-canyon or 2-canyon Six Mile Creek rafting, but we’re so glad we chose the thriller that included Canyon 3. All three of the guides were experienced pros, and we immediately felt like we were in good hands. They did a good job of communicating the techniques and expectations, while also keeping safety first and monitoring everybody’s ability to handle what was coming up, starting with a swim test before you even embark on the raft. This river run is great, because there are very few “lulls” (about half an hour stretch between two of the canyons), and the excitement and challenge just keeps building gradually as the trip goes on. I highly recommend both of these activities, as long as you are physically fit enough to handle them (I am 42 years old and my father who came with me is 61, and we’re not super athletic, just moderately healthy.)

Best and most exciting rafting experience I've ever had! Did all three canyons but the third one I'll never forget! Fell into the drink and went for a hell of a ride on the last canyon. Hatter was an excellent guide, will definitely do it again!
One of the best things i ever did is float the 6 mile creek with Nova! What an amazing experience! The guides are top notch and take care of you from start to finish! Don't even think twice about selecting Nova for your whitewater trip!
I, and several relatives, went on this rafting trip early August 2019 and we all had a blast. The trip was down a beautiful waterway that allowed enough relaxed rafting to enjoy the natural beauty, while being punctuated by exciting rapids. The dry suits made for a comfortable trip and our guide (Scotty) provided quick-witted humor and entertainment during the calmer stretches. If you are considering this rafting trip, but have not fully committed, I encourage you to “pull the trigger” and sign up – you will not be disappointed! These folks are 100% safety oriented and will ensure a safe yet exciting trip. Take along a waterproof action cam to record the adventure.
We took the sixmile creek trip. We thought that 2 canyons would be enough, boy we were wrong. The last canyon is the best. We had a lot of fun, a lot of highlights in the trip. Don't miss out the swim in the end, it's AMAZING! Guides were professional, interesting and fun. One of the best trips I ever did. Highly recommend.
