A long-awaited Alaska trip with friends who have slipped together in Japan. ..
There are many friends who always want to go to Alaska, but few really can. ..
This time, let's go with someone who can go seriously!When
At Jackson Hole, I also experienced shooting that attacked one or eight lines this year, leaving both photos and videos, and feeling the joy of going to Alaska safely from the airport of Salt Lake City to Alaska and Anchorage.
A photo of the mural I saw at the airport.Was there a bat human or such a creature (UMA)? !!A photo taken at once
It is a mural that has been visible to a limited number of people who have seen this SBN blog after a long time. w
Joined the Japanese departure group at Anchorage Airport.
Mr. Jiro and Yamagishi who arrived earlier got a reserved motor home (camper) and picked up friends who gathered apart later.After all, I and Maki arrived at the end.
From to the house of my mobile teacher and homey Jesse aka DJ Cross.I parked two XNUMXft (nearly XNUMXm) motorhomes in front of my house, and the next day I went to the Turnagain Pass at Jesse's suggestion.From the port town of Whittier, take a ferry to Cordova, the destination of this trip.When
Take the live and fresh information from the local legends who live in the area seriously and decide the course.The plan is to catch the weather, snow quality, and the flow of this winter as much as possible to find the best choice for us.
Decide tomorrow with a flexible mind that can respond flexibly
When it's a trip, you can decide the time like that
In the local area, it is difficult to get the feeling of deciding and moving with such a liberated feeling.
Turnagain Pass
Is it the place called Raicho Pass?
A grouse, a creature that remains from the ice age.Targets that are shot and eaten in Alaska.As a domestic animal, there is a difference between the ones that are filthy and killed by stress and chemicals and are cheaply sold on the market.
The story went awry
rather
An area with digging.
I want to dig a little more from Comperia.
I don't really feel the value of peak hunting or places where no one goes.What kind of terrain and what kind of slip did you do?
On the first day of my arrival in Alaska, I worshiped the sunset over the mountains.

On this map, from left to right.By ferry.
A plan I wanted to see even though I was attacking with Japanese friends.
It was XNUMX hours for the ferry.
What is the feeling of tears in the setting sun?
What did I lose
The joy of being here
Thoughts to reach here
I've come this far on a vehicle called a snowboard
Arriving at Cordova, I meet my friend Danny, who I haven't seen in three years.
I shot it myself.My wife, kayley, cooked the mousse ribs and brought them to me and welcomed me.
Thank you for thinking about how many gifts you gave me.
Welcoming from the first day, we are grateful for the warmth of our friends following Jesse.Ask yourself if you are a friend of mine.
Another day, Danny set a bonfire in the garden of the house he bought for the first time.
Good to surround the bonfire.
Let's bonfire.I'm connected because I understand the feelings of Danny who invites me.I feel that.
Cordova main street
There is one major supermarket and one local supermarket.Buy as much as possible from the locals.
Buy and support.
Keen's limited edition Citizen WP Jackson, Alaska, and this time's main shoes of choice.It is warm, waterproof, and in good condition.I used to wear skate shoes until my twenties. w
Mt. Eyak
There was a ski resort in Cordova.One lift.I heard that there is, but when I realize it, I feel how precious and grateful it is.
It opens when it snows and costs about $ XNUMX from XNUMX pm to XNUMX pm. Chris guided me to Danny's friend Robert and skated the powder.There are pillow lines, cliffs, and steep sides, so you can play a lot!
VERTS!
Mount nandakke
I climbed a lot here.
Ask Danny to teach you various mountains and climbing points, and climb with Verts.
The Japanese crew, who were not in the bubble era, had no helicopter budget.So, walking is the main thing.That's why I chose Cordova.
A place I visit for the first time.
Of course, the Japanese who visit here are super rare and can be seen with curiosity.Everyone talks to me. The mayor of Cordova also spoke to me.How did you know this?When. From Danny!
For a full two weeks, I lived here in a motorhome and went up to the mountains almost every day.There were many things.
I also wish I had the opportunity to hold a debriefing session and report with photos in a magazine.
Walk and slip.
