Report from April 14, 2025
Monday morning started out snowing hard at sea level.
Then, the clouds started to part around noon.
By 1 pm, we were airborne.
We started in an old favorite zone and found good snow.
As the day wore on, we bumped over to a huge, sunset-light-philic glacier that delivered.
High-quality powder snow.

Spectacular light.
We skied into the sunset and let the light drip off every fibre of our beings.
I camped for a month on this glacier back in 2016, and being back here rekindled many a kind memory.
Thanks, Alaska!
