One for the Road: Juneau Alaska Spring 2011

The plan was simple and had been in place for 8 months. We were going to go to a relatively unexplored region of the Chugach for 6 weeks in search of new lines and good times away from the crowds while filming Juneau Alaska Scenic

The first thing you notice when you get to Alaska is how unreal the scenerey is.
