A plan for the trip was absolutely stellar. Just take a look at the essential infos about it:

  • Place – Yukon and Alaska, Haines Pass and Tsirku Glacier
  • Film crew – Sherpas Cinema, I am still proud that I was able to work together with these famous artists. On this mission Eric Crossland and Leo Hoorn were responsible for providing the video footage.
  • Project – skiing Corrugated (one of the biggest spine walls on Earth) – heliskiing in the brand new tenure at Haines pass
  • Camp – to reach Corrugated we have to set up a remote camp on the glacier. We need to reach the location with snowmobiles
  • Heliskiing – our base camp will be located at Haines Pass, with the use of motorhomes, wall tents and sauna
  • Time – first three weeks of April
  • Film crew – videographers: Eric Crossland and Leo Hoorn
  • Athletes: Sam Anthamatten, Johnny Collinson, Hadley Hammer and Ralph Backstrom, guides: Yvan Sabourin, Thomas Gaisbacher

Peter Wright, who is the owner of Yukonheli, gave me a call and asked if I could arrive two weeks earlier to help him out setting up the camp for the crew. He also needed someone to  explore his brand new heli skiing tenure. So if I could help him to build the camp, I would get  free helitime. Holy! Free helitime! That sounded like the best deal I got so far!
