Trail Runner - Dean Karnazes Cover

This past fall, I had the good fortune of shooting with my friend, Dean Karnazes. Dean is a hero in the endurance sports world and one of the top role models and advocates for fitness in America. This was also a great opportunity to reconnect with writer and fitness model Sarah Lavender Smith, and spend some time with an extremely overqualified assistant, Chris McNamara. This all made for a very fun day in the Marin Headlands, certainly one of the most beautiful places in California. Check out the current issue of Trail Runner for the full story and more photos.

Discovery Channel - 2nd Episode on Flying Wild Alaska

The number one question after last week's episode of Flying Wild Alaska - "How did the muktuk taste?" - So good that we've asked the Trader Joe's in Carson City to start importing any brand of whale blubber they can find from Unalakleet, Alaska. 

It's so exciting to have such a wild expedition captured and featured on, our buddy, Tommy Baynard's hit show for all to see, though a bit funny to see ourselves on TV. Most importantly, this provided another opportunity to work with some of my best friends and travel on an amazing adventure. Tommy Baynard, the Tweeto family, Tommy Caldwell, Hayden Kennedy, Todd Offenbacher, Tommy Thompson, Dane Henry - You guys are awesome!
 
When the show left off last Friday, we had just finished a first ascent in the Arrigetch Peaks, but were still deep in the wilderness. Be sure to tune in to the Discovery Channel again this Friday at 10pm EST/PST (9pm CST) as "Jim searches for a group of missing mountain climbers lost somewhere in Alaska's Brooks Range".
 
If you missed the first episode, "Guts and Glory", it's now available for download on iTunes.
 
Again - many thanks to Tommy Baynard and Trans-Global Group, Nikon, Polartec, Patagonia and Revo for making this all a reality.
