Antarctic Logistics & Expeditions (ALE) is a US company with a year-round office in Salt Lake City, USA. ALE is the most experienced deep field tour operator in Antarctica, providing a wide range of guided experiences and logistical support for tourists, independent expeditions, and governmental research programs. The heart of Antarctica was opened to private expeditions in 1985 when ALE's predecessor, Adventure Network International (ANI), established the first inland, blue-ice airfield in Antarctica. It took vision, a lot of logistic planning, and not a little help from supporters in Chile, to make this happen. More than 30 years later, we remain the largest and most experienced private operator in the interior of Antarctica. We have carried thousands of passengers, using large aircraft operating out of Punta Arenas, Chile. We have supported virtually every private expedition that has crossed the continent on foot, by vehicle, or by aircraft. We offer a range of experiences that showcase the best of the icy continent and cater to every type of adventurer. And we continue our mission to set the highest possible environmental standards and to use the best possible practices. Our base at Union Glacier, Antarctica, is open each year from November through January, with a support office in Punta Arenas, Chile. ALE operates a large field camp at Union Glacier that can accommodate up to 100 guests in addition to ALE staff.
