ALL I CAN:

Prologue

AWAKENING:

ALL:

I:

Chapter One

COMMUNITY:

FRESHFIELDS:

CANADIAN ROCKIES

Team work is everything on a trip like this, you know. It's difficult thing to come out here, to get out in these big glaciers.

There's a lot of long lines where we would hike up as a pair. Just watch over each other and help each other climb and ski.

To be able to work to get to the top of something with a good friend and share up moments, skiing the line

with them, after them, before them, get to the bottom... Just share up and enjoying it is incredible.

Boys, first day ever!

You should hurry up with those stands and help me with this wall.

If we were getting longer out here we wouldn't be getting anything done.

This time you are alive!

Yeah, well ideally hopefully the downclimb off the ridge is super straightforward. You saw what we went through today.

- Everything is reasonable.

- Are you just going to take this ridge all the way over?

Yeah, like you can go around this peak and then the next peak, you can sneak the back and you get on to the ridge, it looks nice, and then you can't see the other sides.

So we don't know if we can ski down that face and then climb up or make that ridge walk.

We have to leave like, almost at like midnight or one o'clock in the morning pretty much.

The biggest unknown factor is just getting over there.

TANTALUS RANGE. BC

Chapter Two

IMMERSION:

As you've gathered the weather briefing is taking place. The total weather consideration and the case all of the weather favorable...

Weather can make or brake a test shot. That's why you want to know up to the last moment just how you stand with the elements.

So many different kinds of snow. It's one of the most beautiful thing on Earth.

Different every day you go up and your line is changing, snow is changing. It's a new sensation every day.

The clouds are still light. Seventy thousand feet now...

You have a grandstand seat here to one of the most momentous events in the history of science.

For the sake of all of us, and for the sake of our country, I hope that you'll join me in wishing this expedition well.

Storm skiing probably my favourite kind of skiing. Just being in the woods when it's snowing is a calming feeling, I think.

Being surrounded by 100% nature and the total quietness.

Just a different feeling, you don't really get that in too many places and we are lucky to live here.

Get out of there, guy! Get out of there!

Fracture, fracture.

This is Seb, I want you to go ahead and stay there and we are gonna continue the drop.

Chapter Three

PERSEVERANCE:

ALASKA:

I definitely think that nature offers the ultimate testing ground for man to challenge himself.

So many options and so many variables have free skiers looking up at a line.

And it's guaranteed that each would have their own way of reading the terrain. And it's guaranteed they would each ski differently.

Tough to really say - you are being a really environmentally conscious person if you are a skier, you know?

Last year, living in the mountains in a cabin and getting up there by your own means of ski touring or hiking.

The fact that we can get anywhere out of these valleys is only because logging and mining is there.

It's basically created access for us to get up there. But without those roads we wanna be there.

Love doing that. This is my whole life, exactly what I want to do. And I got so much enjoyment out of it.

There's no way you can really say you feel bad for doing what we doing.

At the same time it would be great if we were not wrecking as much by getting this amount of enjoyment out of nature.

Chapter Four

CONNECTION:

Vulcan Puyehue

CHILE:

We came up this far-fetched plan to go down to Chile and ski the inside this crater. But really none of us had any idea if it was even possible.

He was mention volcano opening in 1960 and he has to evacuate his family. All this forest that we are now is just re-growing.

None of us, really, are any good at horse-back riding whatsoever.

Riding up the horse in your ski gear, knowing you're going to go skiing, is just a craziest thing you never imagined.

Day three at base-camp,one of our guys Niko woke us up at 5 in the morning. He told us it's gonna be bluebird.

We got to the top and we weren't on just any volcano. It was a volcano with these Alaska style spines.

And to see that, where we were going go ski, was like a dream come true.

We all ski down to the same spot, just give each other the high five, and throw our skins back on and go for another one.

Though, a year after we are at the volcano, it fully erupted. It's pretty crazy!

I don't really know what it means in the grand scheme of things, but that place where we were is now gone.

When I found out I was coming to Greenland, I didn't really think of what the culture is could be like and that's kind of one of the biggest shocks.

I think there's something bigger about coming to place like this. Seen how other people live.

That helps you appreciate those things in your own life and also helps you, you know, realign.

GREENLAND:

The people who live here year round they pretty much are born here and die here.

What leads you to this moment? I wonder about that all the time. This is me, this is what i'm doing and this is where I am, and...

All the little strange things that went into making it happen.

It's kind a hard really to put into words how remote we are, but we are just basically taking care of ourselves.

It was definitely fun to be out there. Camping at night and hiking all the lines that we ski.

You wake up, the sun was shining, you look out your tent door and just big peaks, ski-able lines everywhere.

We all hiked up this big face, and it was kind of a struggle. And I wasn't sure, I kind of wanted to ski the face that we had climbed.

And I also wanted to ski the couloir that Callum was gonna drop.

Then I ended up skiing the face, looking up and it's just look so gnarly what Callum was dropping into.

MOROCCO:

We had a couple goals on this trip. The first one was to get to the top of mount M'Goun, which is the second highest peak in Morocco.

Looking out of the barren desert it's pretty hard not to wonder: is this a future?

The more you travel it's interesting to see how differently people live from you.

We were all connected in the same problem.

I'm privileged to have grown up in the mountains and skiing my whole life. I wanna see my kids still, you know, do ski. And their kids being able to ski...

It was all my son's fault, he was in grade 6 and he wanted to go ski. And I says: "Well, If you going skiing, I'm going skiing too.

'Cause I'm not driving you to the hell and coming back home again."

This would be my 8 year of what - a hundred plus days. If I get another 6 more in.

Who says you can't drive with ski boots on? All girl working really hard, got a big load.

I'm Mary Woodward and I'm 75 years old. I got free a pass this year. I've been skiing since I was 23.

... such a free feeling. You forget how old you are. Feels like you can do anything.
