Experience Alaska’s Kings And Corn: Heli-Skiing and World-Class Fishing in One Epic Day
Imagine waking to views of snow capped mountains, gearing up for untouched spring skiing, and then—in the same glowing daylight—casting your line into wild Alaskan waters as the afternoon sun lingers overhead. At Tordrillo Mountain Lodge, this isn’t just a fantasy. It’s reality, thanks to the exclusive Kings and Corn program, where luxury, adventure, and Alaska’s raw beauty unite for one unforgettable, adrenaline-charged day.
Introducing Kings and Corn: Alaska’s Ultimate Adventure
The Kings and Corn program is an experience crafted for those who crave both pulse-pounding action and luxurious relaxation. Only available for a few weeks every summer as Alaska transitions from spring to the endless light of solstice, this unique offering lets you combine two of the state’s most sought-after pursuits: heli-skiing and world-class fishing. Start your morning flying by helicopter over pristine, untracked corn snow—a skier’s dream—carving effortless turns in the crisp alpine air. Once the snow softens and your legs are gloriously spent, trade in your skis for a fishing rod and head out by helicopter or boat to legendary king salmon waters. Between casts, soak in the grandeur of Alaska’s wilderness, knowing a gourmet meal and luxurious accommodations await your return.
Can You Really Heli-Ski and Fish on a remote heli accessed river in One Day?
Absolutely. Kings and Corn was created because Alaska’s spring is an entirely different kind of magic—all made possible by the region’s famed midnight sun. With almost 24 hours of daylight in June, the mountain snow stays cool enough for prime late-morning runs, while the rivers and lakes are at their peak for rainbow trout, Arctic char, and Dolly Varden. Picture this: by 9 AM, you’re dropped on a remote summit for spring skiing with no lift lines or crowds. By midday, as temperatures rise, you fly to some of Alaska’s most productive waters for an afternoon of casting—and reeling in—the catch of your life. You get the best of both worlds, all seamlessly coordinated and guided by Tordrillo’s expert team. Not only is the double-adventure possible, it’s effortless. The only thing you need to bring is your sense of adventure; the lodge provides all equipment, safety gear, expert instruction, and even custom-fitted rods.
What Sets This Alaska Experience Apart?
Few places can claim the convergence of world-class mountain terrain, prolific fisheries, and round-the-clock summer daylight. What makes Kings and Corn at Tordrillo Mountain Lodge genuinely unique is this triple blend —paired, of course, with hospitality and amenities found only in the world’s top adventure lodges.
What you’ll discover is the kind of bucket-list experience that satisfies two passions in one day. Here’s why it stands apart:
