From the reviews
I think everyone who goes fishing with Jim Kearns wants to keep him a secret so they might have a chance of booking another trip in the future. About fishing from Gustavus: Imagine the town Mayberry from the Andy Griffith's show - cars rarely see each other on the few roads but when they do, they all wave.
Getting married at Fairweather Adventures at Glacier Bay
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
