I know some of you must be following, as I have, what has to be the biggest news in outdoor adventure this year. Super-hiker Andrew Skurka is nearing the completion of a truly epic 4700 mile trek through Alaska and the Yukon. He started in March in Kotzebue and has skied/packrafted/hiked across the Alaska Range, the Wrangell-St.Elias, the Lost Coast, the Yukon River, and now the Brooks Range on his way back to Kotzebue. With the end drawing near, I thought I should get the word out.

It's almost incomprehensible to me the size of what he is about to accomplish. I sit in awe of you Mr. Skurka...and best of luck in the final couple days!

Intense!

WOW that is impressive and I appreciate all the info he posted on his site.

Thats awesome - averagiig about 23 miles per day. The total elevation gain is unknown, but I can imagine that it was also impressive.

Andrew completed his adventure overnight last night...my guess is this is gonna make one great book!

The planning alone for such a hike is near incomprehensible and was likely exhausting.
