Heli Biking!

The idea was to helicopter up to 4000m near the lakes of Gosainkunda in the Langtang region of Nepal and bike a new route down. I was shooting, Mads Mathiasen and Prayash Tamang from Unique Trails riding, and Will Nangle riding and filming! An article of the trip is in this months Action Asia. Download a PDF of the article here. I’ll post a link to Will’s film when it’s ready : )

UTMR images in 'Like The Wind' magazine

A shoot for Lizzy Hawker's new trail race 'The Ultra Tour Monte Rosa' have been published in 'Like The Wind' magazine.

The Ultra Tour Monte Rosa

At 4,634m Monte Rosa (pink mountain) is the second highest mountain in the Alps (after Mont Blanc).

Endurance athlete Lizzy Hawker who is a 5-time winner of The North Face Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc is about to launch a new 150km ultra marathon around Monte Rosa. At the beginning of September I spent two days on the route near Zermatt to capture the atmosphere of this new race.

Lizzy Hawker training on high Alpine trails

A beautiful 150km mountain ultra marathon encircling Monte Rosa. From the village of Grächen high on an alp above the Matter Vispa, a tributary of the Rhone, to Zermatt at the foot of the Matterhorn, into Italy, and returning on high wild trails, a host of 4000m summits will be your companions. http://www.ultratourmonterosa.com

This image – which I took in November while on assignment for The North Face in Nepal – has gone into the March/April 'Hot Shots' section of Action Asia.

Skiing in circles

The Sella Ronda in Italy is a skiable circuit which encompasses four regions within the Dolomites. A network of modern high-speed lifts and groomed pistes encircle the entire Sella Massif, some 5km across, in a loop that totals 40km.

Great Himalaya Trail posters

My photography gets used on a new series of posters to promote the Great Himalaya Trail in Nepal. They will be distributed to tour agencies and throughout Nepal.
