* About the Artist: Melanie Burns

Growing up in rural Alaska in the ’60s where her parents homesteaded, Melanie Burns spent countless hours outdoors exploring the woods, and the beach, kayaking with humpback whales, and zooming around in their skiff. She has commercial fished on her boat as well as crewed for others.

Lying in her bed at night Melanie would fall asleep to the sound of the waves on the beach, a gentle rhythmic melody, or a fierce pounding from the wild storms. House-shaking gales produced incredible sunsets afterward. Her beloved memories and her life in Alaska have been the inspiration that translates to her work.​

Melanie’s first studio was unique. Her dad had just torn out the old wooden water cistern that they used to catch rainwater for the household. The shed it was housed in turned out to be the best studio ever: a waterfront studio with a breathtaking view, whales going by, sunsets, and storm-driven waves crashing onto the shore – truly inspiring!

Her medium is fluid acrylics and resin painting. Melanie loves the way the colors flow into each other, taking over her intention. Most of all, she loves that her customers tell her they smile every time they look at their chosen painting. Although she continues to create mosaics, the dynamic movement and blending within the color combinations of fluid acrylics are always an intriguing surprise.

Melanie’s story, like most artists, is far from over. She loves to explore new ideas and techniques. She values the personal interaction with her collectors and it is always interesting to see where they come from; the diversity is amazing.

Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about Melanie and her art.

Heli-Hike to Glacier Station

Embark on the Ultimate Skagway Adventure This tour is designed to satisfy your desire for the ultimate adventure in Skagway! We have combined a scenic helicopter flight and a train ride aboard the historic White Pass Scenic Railway with a breathtaking wilderness hike in the Tongass National Forest. This fully guided wilderness experience offers the perfect mix of adventure, exercise and unforgettable scenery. Your day begins with a helicopter flight along the Sawtooth mountain range and over Goat Lake, before landing at Glacier Station. After a brief orientation and gear-grab, you’ll be off on a four- to five-mile round trip hike along the raging Skagway River to a viewpoint of the magnificent Laughton Glacier. Enjoy exceptional customer service, as there will never be more than six guests per guide. The group size is always small. Your hiking experience will be tailored to your particular interests as much as possible. This remote subalpine valley offers wonderful views and an endless array of flora and fauna. If photography is your passion, this is the perfect opportunity to indulge! Be on the lookout for wildlife, bear, moose, mountain goats and many other species all call this valley home. Once back at the wilderness whistle stop, board the White Pass train for a 14-mile scenic rail journey back to Skagway while snacking on our cooler of “backcountry delights.” You’ll treasure the diversity, extraordinary beauty and the companionship of this very special day in Skagway. Flight pattern varies based on current weather conditions.
