Up in Alaska!

Post by Bryce »

Mike Manger and I are up in Alaska. Been getting some skinning, skiing, snowmaching, and kiting thompsons pass!

Check out the blog on it... http://www.explorethewind.com

Couple of days behind... but we just got an awesome session in thompsons pass yesterday. Just enough wind to fly up the mountain... and even try a little gliding!
