It has 16 of the 20 highest mountains in Alaska and over 3100 glaciers. The sheer remoteness and lack of roads makes getting to this rugged wilderness sanctuary a challenge in itself. But for the truly bold and adventurous traveler looking for the trip of a lifetime, Wrangell-St. Elias is packed full of iconic Alaskan mountains, glaciers, rivers and is home to some of the last true wilderness in the world. This is a bucket list vacation destination that everyone should experience!

Year 9
A documentary film that follows Brian Sachs, a Colorado businessman, on a backpacking trip in the Last Frontier and chronicles the hardships, triumphs and lessons learned throughout his long 9 year journey exploring the Alaska wilderness. In order to film our trip while simultaneously guiding, I used the DJI Pocket 2 for the action shots and the Sony A7III for the interviews.
