Flightseeing
Fly near Mount McKinley. Dip into the valleys of the Chugach or Kenai mountains. Look for wildlife over Kodiak Island. Land on a glacier. Flightseeing gives you a whole new perspective on the natural wonders of Anchorage and its varied landscapes - and winter often brings better visibility and clearer views. It's easy to charter a half-hour, hour, or day-long flightseeing tour from various operators.
