Weekend of Winter: Looking for Snow During Juneau's Warmest Cold Season

A Day Above the Ice: Photos from Heli-skiing the Juneau Icefield

Heliskiing the Juneau Icefield
Heliskiing with Alaska Powder Descents
I have this romantic idea of taking a helicopter across the heart of a glacier to ski the untouched peaks looming above an icefield. As I cinched-down the climbing harness over the upper thighs of my snow pants, I felt the picture in my head of happy powder turns suffocating quickly. With my warm, puffy snow pants ballooning around my loins, I was now ready to be rescued in case I fell into a crevasse. You never see any of this in the ski videos, just epic lines down unbelievable mountains set to awesome music. The reality of the situation is that adding helicopters with skiers then multiplying it all by glaciers and mountains raises all kinds of risks. Was I worried? Starting to, or at least I was now not kidding myself. It was time to take it to the next level. I gave my harness one more tug and headed off to the tarmac.

Anchorage Light Show
I've been wanting to photograph the northern lights in Anchorage for awhile now, but bad weather and no solar activity always seemed to coincide with my trips further north. Luckily over the new year my friend Cal dragged me out into the 3 degree weather for a cool display of aurora

The winter cabin season has begun in Alaska

Here is the final installment in The Crossing of Admiralty Series. You'll never believe how it ends.

Blackerby Ridge cuts between the Mendenhall Valley and the downtown area of Juneau. The ridgeline sits high enough to view the faint glow of northern lights when they make their return during the dark nights of early fall.

Wondering what do during Juneau's next summer heatwave? If you want a real kick in the pants - paddle and portage across Admiralty Island. Just to prove it, check out part 4 of the Crossing of Admiralty series.

Word 2 the Wize 5: Real Deal vs. Phonetic
A subtle storm has been brewing in Alaska for quite some time. Hip hop has taken root across the state. From small villages to "big" cities, people have embraced rap as an outlet from the frustrations and trials of living in Alaska.
Word 2 The Wize has become the flagship event that draws from the best lyricists acrossed Alaska and showcases their skills in head-to-head battle rapping. Now, forget what you think you know about battle rap. In the past ten years it has evolved into a very complex game of wits. A mix of prepared lyrics, rebuttals, and off-the-cuff jabs have turned rap battling into a strategic game of verbal chess.
What's so surprising is the level of heart and dedication each performer puts into the event. They give their all which makes for one hell of an entertaining night. I'm proud to say that Word 2 The Wize 6 was no exception, in fact everyone involved kicked it up a few notches. Lines were vicious and clever. People definitely won while others came up short, but at the end of the night everyone was on good terms and happy about the level of competition. I'm excited to share these battles with those who couldn't make it. They're coming soon. In the meantime, enjoy last years main event along with a hilarious interview with one of this years marquee battlers, Daylyt.
