Backcountry XC Skiing - Alaska

Watch the newest video here!! Follow me on Instagram: Follow me on my website: With the right conditions, xc skiing can be the best way into the backcountry! My goal is to show what’s possible with nordic skiing, and maybe redefine how people perceive it. If you like the video, share it! Let me know what you think in the comments below! Video shot entirely in Alaska, over the course of 5 outings in late April and early May 2016. The specific locations were in the Talkeetna Mountains near Hatcher Pass, and in the Alaska Range off of the Denali Highway in the Amphitheater Mountains. Each day we were out for about three hours and covered on average 40km per day with a minimum 1000m vertical. Definitely faster than slogging on heavy backcountry gear. Skiers in order of appearance: David Norris – overall winner of 2016 American Birkebiner, WC skier T
