An all-time big mtn. posse of Travis Rice, Jonaven Moore, Johan Olofsson, Jeremy Jones and Tom Burt, teamed up with Chris Edmunds, Garry Pendergrass and Dan Milner to document a new approach to riding in Alaska without a helicopter.
The crew just returned to Haines after 27 days of glacier camping deep in unchartered territory. I spent 5 days glacier camping in the Tukshinuk range back in 2001, and with that perspective, I can't imagine 27 days out! That's like mounting an Everest expedition - food, shelter, backcountry touring gear and especially with all the camera gear etc. All flown in via glacier planes with skis. This was a huge undertaking to say the least.
I can't wait to see what they produced..
Check out Jeremy Jones recent blog post.
Looks like they killed it!
