Alaska Mountaineering Guides Operating in Kenai Fjords National Park: - St. Elias Alpine Guides (above) lead tours on the Harding Icefield and surrounding mountain peaks, involving special glacier and rock climbing skills. Also check with any of the Hiking or Backpacking Guides in this area. Many of them offer hikes in and around these mountains and may be proficient in moutaineering skills.
Alaska Mountaineering Guides Operating in Denali National Park: - The following six mountaineering guide companies are the ONLY guides allowed to lead parties on Mt. McKinley and Mt. Foraker. Since Mt. McKinley and Mt. Foraker provide the two most demanding mountain climbing feats, you'll be safe with these mountaineering guides.
AND there are stiff penalties for any other company or group that offers commercial guiding services on these peaks. Since a lot of people can die or be badly injured without the proper skills and knowledge, the National Park system is doing everthing it can to ensure your safety!
