If you have your own transportation, then a drive to Portage Glacier is truly worthwhile. As you skirt the shores of Turnagain Arm, watch for wildlife. When you arrive at Lake Portage, board the M/V Ptarmigan for an unforgettable one hour cruise across iceberg-dotted Portage Lake. Take a seat in the enclosed lounge or on the open-air observation deck. The cruise is narrated by a representative of the U.S. Forest Service. The cruise will conclude at the original departure point, allowing you to continue your drive at leisure.
This tour is seasonal and operates from May to September
