    An incredible piece of ski journalism... thanks for posting. I had read the article in powder, but this really brings it to life. Outstanding.

    Cinematography was amazing. I spend a fair amount of time in the high Arctic and this really captures the vastness, scale, and isolation. I've worked with many different film crews and photographers while there, and none have captured it this well.

    My last flight from yurp we flew over the area on a clear day (usually fly over at night or cloudy), WOW what a fantastic area.

    Cool video

    Where were the polar bears? Doesn't deliver....

    No seriously, this was ridiculously good. I never imagined a place like this existed.

    Saw this the other day, great stuff, always high quality story telling from Manley. Goes nice with the Powder article (December issue I think).

    Saw this a couple days back and thought to myself "Great, like I need more stuff on my already overwhelming hit list".

    But seriously, I was gaping through the whole movie... Nice job!

    Awesome segment! Had a buddy that lived up there for a couple of years and was hoping to visit but it's bloody expensive to fly there.

    Epic to say the least. That just went onto my bucket list.

    Well, I wasn't quite aware that my own backyard was as seriously gnar as that. Pretty stunning film.
