Little did we know in 2001 that putting glacier silt into a bar of
soap would be so wonderful! As samples of our soap spread from family
to friends to co-workers and beyond, it became increasingly clear
that we had discovered something truly remarkable. At first, while
focusing primarily on the incredible fragrance and beautiful design,
we had not yet realized the true reason people kept coming back for
more! It was the glacier silt in our soap that was proving to be the
real discovery. Sure, we still have those early experimental bars
to show our great-grandkids one day, but since that time, word has
spread and now thousands of bars are being sold all over the world.
Through the years, some tough decisions have been made...decisions
that we hope set us apart in the business world. We are dedicated
to exceeding your expectations with an uncompromising quest for quality
while maintaining a down-home family goodness about our company. We
stand behind our products because we care about you, our customers
and friends. It is our highest goal to treat each person the way we
ourselves would like to be treated. This standard is evident in all
aspects of our company, from friendly service at retail locations
to careful, timely packaging of all Internet orders.
We hope you have enjoyed visiting our web site and
have been able to catch a glimpse of the Alaska we love so much. As
always, we would like to hear from you. Please drop us a line any
time or if you are in Juneau during the summer, visit our store on
the historic Alaska Steamship Dock.

From an old hymn:
Like the springs and running waters,
Make me crystal pure,
Like the rocks of towering grandeur,
Make me strong and sure,
Like the shining waves in sunlight,
Make me glad and free,
Like the straightness of the pine trees,
Let me upright be.
God, who touches earth with beauty,
Make me lovely too,
Keep me ever, by your Spirit,
Pure and strong, and true.
