My photography and Mark Sundeen's writing document a climbing expedition I organized to the Arrigetch Peaks of Alaska. The expedition involved several first ascents, and eighteen days in a very remote area north of the Arctic Circle. The piece was published in the June/July 2003 issue of National Geographic Adventure.
