Alaska Native Tour and Tram Combo

The Alaska Native Tour shares our worldview with distinct aspects of our Culture at each of our Totems. These monuments tell the backstory of how Nature influences both our People and our Culture. Cultural aspects include Oral Tradition, Ecological Knowledge, Social Practices, Music & Performance Arts, Artwork and Language. Nature’s influence includes Geology, Geography, Phenology, Ecology, Economics, Sustainability, and Biodiversity. Alaska Native Culture is organized wisdom, while the Science of Nature is organized knowledge. This tour is about how the two work hand in hand, to give us a higher sense of responsibility to our People, our Land and ourselves The Goldbelt Tram is located just steps off the cruise ship dock. The tram ascends up Mount Roberts from the lower terminal to a height of about 1,800 feet. A restaurant, theater, beer garden and retail shop are located at the top of the tramway, as well as connections to trails leading both up and down the mountain.
