Sea and Ski trip report

I put together a trip report for the Voile V-Team Blog on my last Sea and Ski trip into Prince William Sound, Alaska. Since all my work this spring was canceled I had ample time to reflect on an amazing week with an amazing group of people. The trip was a TOAL (Trip Of A Lifetime) !

Big thanks to Alex and Maddy with Babkin Charters for being key in making these trips happen with me. Together we are all making dreams into a reality. Check out my Sea and Ski trip page for more photos and information.
