Yukon Salmon Sub-Committee: Journeys with Kings

Yukon Salmon Sub-Committee got in touch with me to help edit footage shot on a trip down the Yukon River last summer. They visited a number of villages along the river in order to get a better understanding of the status of the King Salmon and to talk with locals about strategies to protect the resource.

Siblings

If Alaska had a brother it would be named Chile and their sister would be Argentina. A few months back I had the opportunity to tag along on a motorcycle trip from Terra Del Fuego to Santiago for about 4 weeks of adventure. Not knowing much about the area, other than that it was the land of the Tango, Malbec wine, and some big mountains, my expectations were quickly blown out of the water. Massive peaks rise from the ocean, while glaciers ever so slowly sink into it. The people are some of the friendliest I've met, while the food is top notch (warning: I ate more meat and bread in 4 weeks, than I had in the last 2 years). The trip itself went off "relatively" smoothly, with only a few dropped bikes and one broken collar bone. I'm currently editing a short film trailer from the trip, so I'll post it up here soon. Meanwhile, enjoy these snaps!
















Haines, Alaska

Every fall my old man and I try to make it to Haines, Alaska for the Coho run. The weather is brisk, the mountains are snowy and the eagles and bears are fat from feasting all summer. This year we were accompanied by my girlfriend and a co-worker....and of course, my girlfriend took home the biggest fish! A story that quickly circulated around the office and one sure I haven't heard the last of.  I didn't upload the pictures of her trophy, but it was about 20 lbs! Enjoy these other pics. Oh, I've also included a few pictures from last year.
