The Sunsets for Zigs Credit Cards usage.. It Ain't No Freeride
15 Apr 2008


By the time June 2008 comes along, it will have been 17 months since I have even strapped on the board in anger; back in Gulmarg (except for a disaster of a weekend last July, which really doesn’t count at all, trust me).
17 months!  Shit me, that’s crazy isn’t it? Sad but true folks.

Indy 5000 2 - Credit: The Mountain Weekly, www.themountainweekly.net An Alaska Heli Experience
03 May 2008

We arrived in Haines on the ferry from Juneau.  The 3 hour ferry ride over was amazing, when the peaks of Alaska finally started to break thru we knew we were in for a real treat. Haines is a tiny little in the middle of nowhere Alaska.

Once we got checked into the hotel we decided to head out to Mile 33 Road House and the Alaska Helisking operation run by Seandog. The drive from town was unreal; we saw huge moose, so many bald eagles they started to look like ordinary birds. This is a great way to get out of the hustle and bustle of city life.
