From @kaylinrichardson on Instagram: "Thank you to all my sponsors and supporters for making me as prepared as possible as I go off the grid to make a longtime dream come true. It's time to put on my big girl pants and ski AK!!!"

From @hellyhansen on Instagram: The storm has cleared and @kaylinrichardson is just a little excited to access the 3-4 feet of fresh.

From @marcuscaston on Instagram: "It's called dumping and it's currently happening. Snow level just dropped, but it's been pounding up high for 3 days. Waiting out the storm before heading out to feets of fresh."

From @marcuscaston on Instagram: "3-5 feet awaits."

From @kaylinrichardson on Instagram: "Super sloppy down here means 3-5 feet waiting at our camp"

I went to AK to challenge myself, and this line, 'filthy spines' did just that. Seen from the heli, I didn't break focus until I stopped at the bottom."

From @kaylinrichardson on Instagram: "Last week I captured the legendary @tommday taking in the Chugach in all their glory. Such a pleasure and privilege to know and make ski movies with this kind and meticulous man - thirty years later and he still loves setting up beautiful shots and carving beautiful turns."

From @kaylinrichardson on Instagram: "Just returned from my first outing into the wilds of AK... Too tuckered out at the moment to go into detail (soon though), but I will say this- it was all-time in so many ways."

From @marcuscaston on Instagram: "@tommday has got one of the best turns in the biz. Here he is keeping his cool above the rest day couloir on the back side of our home face."

From @marcuscaston on Instagram: "Let's go home. Aright shall we just ski this 50 degree spine into an Alaskan sunset? Wes better have the soup ready by the time we get home."

From @marcuscaston on Instagram: "It's called the natural line and it's a beautiful thing. It's about tapping into the power of the universe and being with the world around you."

From @marcuscaston on Instagram: "Can you spot @kaylinrichardson? (hint: top right corner)"

From @marcuscaston on Instagram: "A shot of our camp home. Northern lights, powder and great food... got it all at #tourcamp"

From @aasheim22 on Instagram: "Thanks for the trip @pointsnorthheli, @warrenmillerent & @hellyhansen I had a blast! Deadahead is the last spine I skied in AK, man, those things scare the crap out of me!"
