This has been a hike i've grown up hearing about in eagle river be for i even knew i would enjoy the backcountry as much as i do today. The Historic Crow pass leading you from Eagle River, to Girdwood, or vis versa. The Grueling 24 mile hike offers out of this world views and more chances of coming face to face with a big brown bear then youd like to count.

2 days and 1 night is all we needed to clear this hike and man, was it worth it checking it off the list. Wish i had more footage to share but quite honestly i was taking it all in myself.

Back To The Present: Snowboarding In Valdez, Alaska - Part 2

When Eddie Bauer snowboard guides get together, they skip the pleasantries and head right into the mountains. Eighteen years after he first skied the massive peaks of Valdez, Alaska, Eddie Bauer split board guide Scott Newsome met up with Eddie Bauer snowboard guide Chris Coulter to revisit the lines he cut his teeth on in his well spent youth.

In Part 2 of our series, Scott and Chris hit read the lines of Thompson Pass and get their runs in in preparation for an even bigger objective to come in Part 3.

As the first splitboarder to earn full ACMG lead guiding certification and a handpicked heli guide for pro snowboarders from Travis Rice to Jeremy Jones, Scott Newsome is a bit of a legend in the Canadian snowboard ranks. Newsome was raised in Lake Louise, Alberta, and earned his stripes as a Whistler-based pro, then migrated back to the stacked peaks, unlimited touring, and deep snowfalls of the Canadian interior, where he started his guiding career at Cat Powder, his family’s Revelstoke-based cat-skiing operation.

Newsome’s long splitboard rise through the ACMG Guide ranks began in the skintrack mecca of Rogers Pass and culminated nearly a decade later when he became the first Canadian to earn ACMG full guide certification in 2011. His current day job is VP of Operations and Lead Guide for Eagle Pass Heli, a heli-skiing op with 270,000 acres of prime stacked tenure in the heart of the Monashee Mountains, which has hosted pro film crews from Absinthe Films and Red Bull Media House to Poor Boyz Productions and Legs of Steel.

Eighteen years after he first look at the mountains of Thompson Pass in Valdez, Alaska, Scott returns to the state of the last frontier with snowboard guide, Chris Coulter, to revisit some of the peaks where Newsome cut his teeth on the pro circuit.
