 After an epic day ice-climbing in beautiful Matanuska glacier, we were recommended the cozy lodge for some top-notch burgers. What was supposed to be a quick lunch break turned out to be an epic, spontaneous, and absolutely unpredictable adventure. Ready? Let's go! Our guide from the ice-climb earlier recommended a restaurant called Sheep Mountain Lodge. Cornie! Foghorn! Yeah, yeah, I'm excited to have some food here. Oh, by the way, there's just a helicopter just lounging there casually, things that you only see in Alaska, maybe other places too. It's yours, you know what I mean? No, that's crazy. So, we walked into the restaurant and Alex saw this walking helicopter special, which we talked to our guide about. But I didn't expect this to happen and he just walked to the lady saying, hey, is that even an option today? To which he answered, yeah, that's the perfect day for this actually beautiful, and the pilot just walked in. I'm like, let me just prepare myself mentally. I believe this escalated pretty fast, but we are going for a helicopter tour. How exciting! That's our pilot getting the airplane ready. Step down, once you're set, just close them softly. Back and down is locked, okay? Up and forward is unlocked. Seatbelts are just your normal car seatbelts. Right on. Seatbacks pop up for storage. We're not going to use that, but that's where the survival kit is underneath my seat, okay? We're not going to use that either, but it's good to know where it is. Everybody's got a headset, just put it on your ears. It goes right around in front of the mask. If you can't hear yourself, we can't hear you bringing a little bit closer. Anybody have any questions? Nah, man, we're both in the back, no doubt, right? No, so I can sit in the front. You want to sit in the front, baby? Sure. The heli ride we picked departs from the lodge and goes for 20 minutes. The first part of the ride takes you around Sheep Mountain, a 6,223 foot elevation summit located 50 miles northeast of Palmer in the southern Talkeetna Mountains of Alaska. Sheep Mountain is located in a sub-architect climate zone with long cold snowy winters and mild summers that make for some breathtaking landscape, a diverse wildlife and greenery as far as the eye can see. During this part of the ride, we were able to spot a moose in her calf, a bear and a lot of sheep. The second part of the ride was the most exciting. Being able to walk on the glacier and ice climb was certainly incredible, but enjoying an aerial view of Matanuska Glacier running for 27 miles long and 4 miles wide was one of the best experiences of our lives. Ice arches, ice fields and glacier moraine make for a beautiful view that leaves you completely in awe. Beyond imagination, beyond anything that I've ever seen. The pilot of the helicopter ride we were in was talking about the moose sheds. So when they shed their big horns, they just leave them in the mountains and then he would usually fly and collect them. And we just saw here in his lodge there are a bunch of them here and there are a couple of them on the carvings, really beautiful. He said the sun bleaches them after they get shed, but some stand out pretty well on the terrain, so that's what makes it easier for him to discover them from the chopper. But that's a wonderful hobby. What do you do with your hobby? I collect moose sheds. Time for food. Our Instagram feed is going to be so full today. I know. It's going to be looking like Mimi and Alex. Thank you guys for watching and I hope you enjoyed today's episode. And if you did, give this video a thumbs up and consider subscribing to our channel.
