    Nordic skiing with baby in tow

    Stephanie Dickerson takes baby Riley out nordic skiing near Homer, Alaska on a sunny winter day.

    It’s been a particularly strange winter here in Southcentral Alaska. January in Homer was the warmest on record according to NOAA. Our yard at home was green grass for the month and there wasn’t a piece of ice or snow in the neighborhood. It seems like winter is back with a few days with fresh snow adding up and more coming down right now. Just perfect if you ask me, we had a little mini summer vacation in the middle of winter. Now the days are getting noticeable longer and the bright sun reflecting off this fresh snow is magical. (more…)

    You’ve probably been wondering what this fat biking thing is all about. I have been. Maybe you’ve had a friend or two suddenly contract an obsession with riding this silly looking bike with oversized tires all the time, and everywhere.

    Shooting the Brothers on the Run

    I had an incredible spring filled with surf trips around the wild coastline of Alaska. One such trip involved a renegade group of snowboarders and a pro surfer. The Brothers on the Run is a webisode series sponsored by redbull and youtube:

    “BOTR” documents the trip of a lifetime: Alaska to southern Chile, by rig, on the longest navigable road in the world — 15,000 miles minimum. They started in Anchorage on April 1 and expect to reach Chile by August, shooting and shredding the whole way down. The series will feature cameos by other pros, bros and guides.

    In mid April the brothers and their crew, which at the time included Maui surfer Ian Walsh and snowboarder Travis Rice, joined us for an Alaskan surf adventure aboard the m/v Milo.
