Thread: Combine Alaska trip with another north american powder place?

Don't fly to Cordova. Fly to Anchorage and take the ferry.

The high speed ferry is a great trip. However I do not think there is any Anchorage to Whittier shuttles running this early. Could be an issue getting to Whittier. Alot easier to take it from Cordova than hitch a ride back to Anchorage.

Strange, same thing happened to me AD 1992....

I was thinking rental car they're cheap in the winter.

Booked tickets to SEA with a small stopover in the Icelandic capital Rejkjavik. Will try to do a raodtrip for a 7-8 days and go to Baker, Revelstoke and Pemberton. Days of skiing nights of driving..then off to Alaska.

Take that care and hit up the interior of BC. They get hammerjacked with snow that time of year. If you can swing, do up a cat skiing trip.

March sucked this year in Tahoe, don't bother coming here it's supposed to be the same.

Correct. Many run end of season deals. You might check around as some shut down skiing operations and allow sledders into their permitted territory.

if snowconditons are good we are aiming for Mt Baker-Revelstoke area-Pemberton then back to SEA. Around 1000-ish miles but should be ok to do in a week if the roads are fine.

So after a little accident in La Grave im sitting here with a torn MCL and trying to get in shape before the AK trip.



Will skip the NW/BC skiing and go down to LA or maybe a week in Vegas? Must be a good rehab location..

So off we go. Ossur CTi custom made brace will make this trip awesome. Due to my knee we are going down a week to LA then flying over to Cordova. Damn stoked!

Have fun! Don't worry about that knee. After tearing my meniscus while weightlifting back in November I had an MRI that confirmed that my left ACL has been gone for around 20 years. At the time (8th grade), the doctors told me it was a partial tear and just put me a cast - no reconstruction. I've been very active my whole life and it never slowed me down (until the meniscus tear). In fact, I had a reconstruction on the right knee in 1999 and that one feels worse

Jesus Christ, did you ski that?

Talking Money: Knee went fine with the CTi Brace but i brought a pair of brand new Renegades 196 and they were way to big and fast for me and especially with a bad knee. I was shit scared ha ha... Skied 4 days out of 6 and did a first decent that they now call Swedish Dogs.

Gary: ski and ski..was not really Japan pow but pretty gnarly.

Well played ZekeWolf, that was insane!
You must possess a large amount of GSA-ness.

Where's Swedish Dogs?
