About Us

The owners of Alaska Backcountry Adventure Tours, Matti and Dan, have a common passion for sharing the beauty and wonder of Alaska’s wild frontier with others. A born-and-raised Alaskan, Matti has snowmobiled the better part of her life, and as such holds a dear place in her heart for the activity. She met Dan in Southern Utah—his original home and where he has ridden ATVs for his whole life—and brought him up to Alaska to experience its majesty. When Dan fell in love with the frontier state and eventually moved up to AK, he and Matti figured there was no better way for them to enjoy Alaska than to help other people experience it. With that goal in mind, plus their combined expert knowledge of ATVs, snowmobiles and the Alaskan backcountry, they strive to provide the most safe, exciting and memorable tours of Alaska that can be found.
Along with running the business they have 3 young children with whom they love to spend time with in the outdoors. The kids are not shy when it comes to meeting the clients and helping them get ready for their trip. Dan and Matti pride themselves on being a family owned and operated company and their kids enjoy it too.
