Where the Wild
Still Rules

Remote wilderness excursions guided by people who know every tide, trail, and tidal flat of POW Island.

Prince of Wales Island

The third-largest island in the United States, POW is a place most people have never heard of — and those whove been here tend to keep it that way. Ancient Sitka spruce rainforests, fjords carved by glaciers, rivers thick with salmon, and coastlines that stretch for hundreds of miles without a soul in sight.

We are based here because there is nowhere else like it. When you come to POW, you come to the real Alaska — not the cruise ship version.
