FFS Bear Chase Pod with Owen Day from Summit Ski Tours

The bear base camp reunion pod, see us start off talking Iceland and BC with heli guide Owen Day, founder of Summit Ski Tours, before we have a reunion with Romi Nella and Andy Beal, who were all chased uphill by a bear while touring from a base camp with Owen.

Owen has worked as a guide with Arctic Heliskiing since its inspection and gives us an insightful lowdown on riding and touring in Northern Iceland.

Owen also works for Northern Escape Heli-ski out of Terrace BC, close to the Alaskan border. It’s within the Northern Escapes tenure that Owen runs heli-accessed week long tented base camps and where the Backdrop Crew woke, met, shouted at and eventually ran from a grizzly bear.
