Jonas Crabtree and partner outdoors in the forest near Wrangell, Alaska

Hi, I’m Jonas, your local walking tour guide here in Wrangell, Alaska. I moved to this island in 2015, and after spending more than 700 nights exploring its shorelines and forests as a wilderness guide, I didn’t just find a career—I found home.

I founded these walking tours to offer something different: an authentic, small-group connection to the land and the legends of Wrangell. With a degree in Tourism and Outdoor Leadership, I’ve spent my life studying how we connect with the wild. But it’s my life here as a neighbor, a friend, and a new father that truly roots me to this community.

When you walk with me, you aren’t just getting a history lesson. You’re hearing the stories of the people, the past, and the living culture that I am now raising my daughter to cherish.

I designed these tours for curious travelers arriving by sea who want to step beyond the pier and discover the ‘real’ Alaska. I’m glad you’re here, and I look forward to showing you the island I call home.
