I couldn’t tell you exactly why. When I saw the tow truck pull up, something in the back of my head told me there would be trouble. It might have been the angle it was backing up. But I watched as it played out in glorious slow motion knowing exactly what was going to happen […]

So You’d Like to Land on a Glacier

by Jay Hood October 23, 2013

There were a few things I wanted to do in Alaska. Going face to face with a grizzly bear was at the top of the list. Slightly less dangerous, but no more exciting was seeing a beaver in the wild.
