Avalanche! … That is all.

I only regret that I didn’t get to try this. It looks fun as hell. Though I think I’d opt for dogs and not reindeer.

More Alaska segments!

Synopsis: Quite possibly the most serious piece of journalism I’ve ever done. I can’t describe how difficult this was to report, edit, produce.

After 9 days in Alaska, we’re back in the ‘Lower 48′ with piles of tapes from which Kasey-Dee and I plan to produce a ton of stories for discovery-news.com.

We’ll post ‘em on here as well. Here’s a ‘Zoo Logic’ about how varied sled dogs are. I’d always thought they were just huskies and malamutes, and had preconceived images of big ol’ Siberian Huskies pulling mushers along the arctic tundra. I could not have been more wrong. Modern Iditarod sled dogs - Alaskan Huskies as they’re called (not a recognized breed) - have everything in them from pointer to greyhound. Iditarod dogs are smaller, faster and leaner than the ones in Denali National Park, which are more of the traditional, freight-carrying dog. But not quite as small as the ones I saw sprint racing at Fur Rondy.

Synopsis: The first in our Alaska series!

Synopsis: Just the second ‘whole staff’ segment we’ve done - this time at NASA Goddard. I like the ‘Superbad’ style editing James Williams did on the intro and interstitials.

Synopsis: Not just one animal this time, but a whole ecosystem! (Well, exhibit actually).

Synopsis: The main story I did with the Maryland State Highway Administration’s archaeology team.

Synopsis: Maybe the coolest animal I’ve ever seen.
