It's not at all about the gear, but what this gear represents.
This pile of fancy things represents the beginning of an adventure - of remote places in parts of the world I've never seen before.
It's the continuation of a lifelong thread of humble exploration of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. This is a lifelong body of work and I'm just getting started.
In the wee hours of tomorrow morning, @as.pavkovich and I will embark on a 100 mile ski traverse of the Absaroka - Beartooth Ranges, which comprise the northeastern borders of Yellowstone National Park.
Along the way, we'll see firsthand the countless dead stands of whitebark pine, one of the first casualties of a changing climate in the GYE.
This expedition is not about the power of the human spirit, this is about the land and our relationship with it. This is about learning about a place that speaks for itself, but only to those who listen.
We must be their voice. Now, I go to learn, and to listen. See you on the other side!
PS- Sorry Paul, you can't come on this one. But he wanted to be in the photo and we couldn't say no.
Our first Summit attempt on Denali was 5 days into our trip. We had made it to 14 camp with 10 days of food and supplies in 2 days.
We climbed and skied the Rescue Gully on Day 3 and hung out at 17,000 feet for an hour of so.
We took a rest day in between and then went for it. We attempted to summit via the West Buttress and were cruising up the highest peak in N America until we hit a wall around 19,000 ft. We slowed to a snails pace and inched our way up Pig Hill to the Summit ridge.
At 8:30 PM we all turned to each other and decided that we had had enough. We had pushed for a summit ski too quickly and had been reminded that this mountain is different than anything we had seen before.
Instead of descending all the way down the West Buttress, we stuck to our initial plan of the day and entered into the Messner Couloir just after 10PM. The Sun highlighted the upper face and looking down the line sent shivers down my body.
I will never forget how low we all felt after turning around at 20,000 ft. We were so close to the main objective of the trip. As we cautiously hop turned into the Messner our energy levels increased as we descended in altitude. By the end, we were all smiles and the lack of summit was forgotten.
We had just skied our dream line at 10:30 at night! Almost 6,000 ft of no fall zone, steep skiing right back to our camp!
This photo is of myself @bigmountaincreative watching @rangercarl lead the way into the famous Messner Couloir.

Announcing... I’m opening up a coaching platform today. I’ve dialed in a balanced training routine for myself that has allowed me to understand what I need to show up to a race line ready to compete at my best. I’ve been teaching for over 10 years, and am excited to create individualized training plans to cater in a “Mountain Endurance Lifestyle LLC”platform.
