					<description><![CDATA[The first day I fell in love with Valdez was when I walked around town and took in the breathtaking harbor in the middle of the peaks that surround the town. The next day I fell more in love when I was standing on the top of my first run at Thompson Pass by myself thinking about how I got there, how my entire riding experience has led to this moment and how it was up to me to make it down. I was in Alaska for 25 days over the past couple weeks, I flew in early to help get ready for Tailgate AK and left a couple days after the event ended. My role with Tailgate AK was to make sure the media and VIP&#8217;s were taken care of for the 12 days of the event. I drove the shuttle with contest winners, pros, photographers, filmers, writers and whoever else jumped in. We had some early mornings, a good amount of late nights and lots of funny moments to add to the occasion. This was my first time at Thompson Pass and I didn&#8217;t push it. I rode stuff that didn&#8217;t scare me other than the thought in [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Tailgate Alaska is well underway at Thompson Pass. It&#8217;s been beautiful every day and today was a great day to get out on the mountain. Gilly was kind enough to bump us with his sled so we could get in our laps for the day. We headed up to below Bro Bowl to get in turns. The snow was mixed, it&#8217;s been settling since there hasn&#8217;t been new snow and there&#8217;s an assortment of heavy snow to lighter snow depending on where the sun/shade has been throughout the day. Today was Tony and myself taking laps. Tony won a trip to Tailgate Alaska at the SIA Tradeshow so he flew out from Wisconsin for the fun. Here&#8217;s the shot of him riding down the mountain with me. For our last run, we met up with the rest of our crew to shred down to basecamp. They took the snowcat up to where we were riding, $25 will get you one ride up.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[After spending the last couple days exploring Valdez, it was finally time to head up to Thompson Pass and get the full scale of Alaska mountains. I headed up bright and early with my gear to see what work needed to be done and ended up getting in a couple laps to warm-up for this adventure. During Tailgate BC, Nico was telling me about Alaska and how your whole season is basically practice for AK. That everything you&#8217;ve ridden hopefully prepares you for the riding you&#8217;ll have in Alaska. It was definitely humbling and a reminder that these mountains are no joke. For those who don&#8217;t have a sled in AK, the crew at Big Mountain Taxi will get you up the hill but a lot cheaper than a heli. I ended up headed out with driver Calean (spelling?) who took care of me on the ride up. We headed up Nick&#8217;s to get in a couple laps there. Here&#8217;s a shot of Nico getting driven up. Gear for Alaska. Dakine heli pro backpack with my backcountry gear, Jones Hovercraft, Smith helmet. Today I had a new piece of gear, a harness. Just in a case of crevasse rescue, you [&#8230;]]]></description>
