Seattle Ridge, Alaska



Rising from the ocean's Turnagain Arm, is a beautiful head wall called Seattle Ridge. Zach, Kelly, Semi, and I started off at a leisurely 10am to ride this virgin line.

If you want to stand on top the only way is up. We picked this spine for the most direct approach. 

Climbing is good for the soul.

This is the first of three runs down the head wall. No heavy coastal snow here, just a whole bunch of Fluff!

Can't get enough and so up to the summit we go again. Run numeral II.


I am the tinny black dot near the peak scoping my line.

Zach and Kelly living the dream.

Oh wait, we still have to get back over the ridge. I guess we will just ride another 3,000 vert!
