In June 2012 we took a Japanese film crew on a 13 days Alsek trip. Yoshie Kumagae from Whitehorse, Yukon was the interpreter and the film crew organizer. The 2 hrs production was about glacier bears, glaciers, adventure travel and nature.
It was a great trip. We had some adventure, quite a few bears footage and lots of beautiful scenery. The movie was aired in Japan this past summer, 2012.
It was a really fun projects and great to work with the film crew. Many thanks to Yoshie for all her work.
