no it's where the childs glacier meets the copper river and the glacier calves extremely frequently. about 15 years ago it calved so big that a 30' high tidal wave took out a bunch of tourists on the opposite side (where the camera angle is).

"all natural, and super powerful"?

All natural except the ski. Please.

Sort of like the intro to Global Storming where guy is blabbing "...snowcats carve halfpipes and helicopters drop us on top of virgin peaks. We live our lives as one with nature."

That being said: that's fucking nuts!

Pffffft EXTREME!!!!


I can't believe they spent all that time and money chasing one 3-foot mushburger. Probbly would have paid for one Indo / Maldives / Adaman / Tahitian / <insert dream trip here> 5-star boat trip.
