Tailgate Alaska: Episode 4 Posted on May 08 2009 at 12:35am by Exile
Tailgate Alaska Blog: Rap'em Up Posted on April 27 2009 at 08:32pm by Exile
Tailgate Alaska was an experience I won't forget. From the get go, things seemed a little dicey. Mt. Redoubt had already messed with a bunch of travel arrangements before we arrived - followed by five days of mediocre weather - blue patches at best, for the better part of our first week.

Haines Alaska Heli Day 9 Posted on April 20 2009 at 07:00pm by beavercreek
After yesterday's amazing day of riding I could barely sleep. It was one of thoose nights you replay every run and every turn of the day back in your head, everything was so vivid... So when the alarm went off early this morning I was tired but knew we had one more crack at the nice bluebird weather whole. Bluebird means when the skies are blue and the birds - ie.. Helicopters are flying.. or atlest thats how I have always known it.

Everyone in Haines is smiling tonight!!! Bluebird skies and blower powder, can you ask for anymore?

Haines Alaska Heli Day 7 Posted on April 19 2009 at 08:01pm by beavercreek
After a few days of sitting around and "window shopping" for blue skies we decided to head down to the Heli Pad at 33 mile. We had done numerous weather checks thruout the day by driving down to the Heli pad and staring at the skies. With a nice "sucker hole" of blue skies, spirits were high..
Haines Alaska Heli Day 6 Posted on April 18 2009 at 09:12am by beavercreek
I came to Alaska to do 2 things this trip Heli ski and fish. We were lucky enough to be invited out on the Sundowner fishing boat by Captain Bruce Bauer. When we arrived at the dock the Teton Gravity Research (TGR) team was also gearing up to come for a ride. We came walking down the dock with shotgun shells, clay pigeons and lots of beer. The TGR guys gave us crazy looks at first then ran up to the liquor store and came down with cases of beers as well.. I knew this would be the start of a fun trip. With that we set out for tonights dinner.. Tailgate Alaska: Fish Fry! Posted on April 17 2009 at 08:08am by Exile

Haines Alaska Heli Day 5 Posted on April 16 2009 at 08:21pm by beavercreek
The morning started out with gray skies; however with the magic of 33 mile the weather soon parted. We were setup with a new guide today Ted, or Tedshred. He was up in Haines guiding last year and we were stoked to have him taking us out. Trav and I went back to the house and when we came back the boys had decided they wanted to fly.. To old Faitfull. I'll be honest I wasnt to stoked but hey they want to get there Heli days in so I cant blame them. Haines Alaska Heli Day 4 Posted on April 15 2009 at 09:49pm by beavercreek
Haines Alaska Day 4 Everyone was tired this morning after a solid day of riding yesterday. I woke up to grey skies and quickly went back to bed. A few hours later we decided to head down to the Heli pad and see if the clouds would part for some shots. The crew was not feeling the weather so we decided to do some Heli waiting..
