KÜHL Launches Episode Three of The Road Less Traveled Video Series and Alaska Trip Giveaway

October 3, 2024

A series celebrating the untold stories of unique individuals who have turned their passions and curiosities into a way of life.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (October 3, 2024) /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – KÜHL, a premium independent outdoor brand, announces episode three of The Road Less Traveled: Alaska Aviation, continuing the new video series that dives into the lives of those who forge their own paths. Following trailblazers, rebels and renegades, each episode features individuals who defy norms to follow their passions in the great outdoors.

Episode Three: Alaska Aviation flies into the heart of Alaska and sets its lens on two friends navigating the skies above the rugged peaks of the Alaska Range. Professional pilot Joe McAneney and aviation mechanic Andrew Esola parallel the footsteps of the legendary pioneers Don Sheldon and Brad Washburn – the duo who mapped the rugged region from the sky 75 years ago – with the goal of documenting the towering peaks and spirit of the untamed landscape below.

Maneuvering with precision, they position their single-engine Cessna to capture the breathtaking beauty of Denali, the highest peak in North America. The friends’ passion for capturing the towering peaks shows us that Alaska is still a place where “self-governance” defines life.

“Alaska’s raw, untamed beauty was the perfect canvas for our story,” according to Producer Chase Gallegos. “We sought a community that mirrored our relentless spirit. Talkeetna was that place. It’s not just about the planes soaring overhead; it’s about the stories whispered around the campfire and the friendships forged in the wilderness. This project wasn’t just about capturing images; it was about capturing the heart and soul of a place that truly never settles.”

In Episode Three of The Road Less Traveled, the audience witnesses a visual ode to the fearless pioneers who came before them, seamlessly blending the past and present in a captivating tribute to Alaskan aviation.
