Way back in the summer of 2011 I completed a traverse of a chunk of the Alaska Peninsula with Dave Gray, Pete Basinger, and Brian Blair.
I shared a detailed writeup and lots of pics in several chapters after returning:
One.Two and three.Four.Five.Six.Seven.Eight.Nine.Ten, eleven, twelve.Thirteen.I also shared an opinion on the
headspace required for a traverse of this nature, along with a handful of out-takes.
Gear geekin' extravaganza
here.
Worth mentioning with all of the above: This was 2011. The Surly Moonlander (R.I.P.) was only a prototype, tires like Bud and Lou were still but a faraway dream, and Alpacka had not yet come out with their Cargo Fly. Practically the dark ages!
Gear aside, it was a most memorable traverse, and a fantastic way to see a writ-large chunk of the peninsula.
Today I can finally share the full-blown video from that trip.
