Our Season Begins!
It has been a very busy few days here at AMS HQ. The weather is not cooperating but that is one of the things that makes Alaska fun.
We are working with a film crew, who are patiently waiting to fly into the range.
Yesterday in preparation guide John Skyes and Director Caitlin Palmer practiced fixed line ascension skills.
