A luxury chalet perched dramatically on the peak of an Alaskan glacier is set to take the concept of living on the edge to new heights.

The Sheldon Chalet isn't for the traveler who harbours a disdain for winter and all that comes with it: snow, freezing temperatures and scratchy wool sweaters.

It is, however, for the snow bunny who finds awe in snow-capped mountain tops and the untamed wilderness of glacial landscapes and is unafraid of a little frost in exchange for celestial light shows.

Anchored in the granite, iron and titanium of the Sheldon Nunatak (an exposed ridge or mountain peak, also called glacial islands), the Sheldon Chalet can easily call itself one of the world's most exclusive addresses, accessible only by plane, at 1,829 metres (6,000 feet) above sea level.
