The Powder Road The Powder Road documents the dream of ski travel. It's the story of a road trip from Colorado to Alaska in search of the best skiing on earth. In February of 2005, with rumors of a big winter in Alaska, four friends left Boulder, Colorado, driving pickup trucks towing four-stroke snowmobiles and skis. The caravan moved northward and stopped in classic ski towns like Aspen, Colorado, and Jackson, Wyoming, before crossing the American/Canadian border and into the beautiful ranges of British Colombia, the Yukon, and Alaska. In search of untouched mountains to ski while camping and traveling in a self-sufficient style, the four met an array of characters, adventures, setbacks, and mountains only rivaled by the imagination. The Powder Road documents their journey and a lifestyle centered around the search for deep snow.
