Home Actor Chris Burkard HD Instagram Photos and Wallpapers May 2024 Chris Burkard Instagram - Alaska being roughly 665,000 square miles makes it the largest state in the US and pretty difficult to see it all even in a lifetime… March of 2018 on a catalog shoot for prAna, I decided to take a small crew to hit some of the most scenic locations ranging from the Don Sheldon Mountain hut near Denali to the Turnagain Arm on the Kenai Peninsula. A truly diverse array of wilderness where adventure and lifestyle in tune with nature is inevitable and a perfect time to see the state in peak season… exploring glaciers, ice caves, and eventually coastal territory accessible only by bush plane or small boats & highly dependent on a clear weather window. For the majority the trip, clear skies were in our favor and the swell lined up for perfect surf despite the frigid waters… even a rideable bore tide that locals often surf during large swings @prana

Chris Burkard Instagram – Assistants are often the least appreciated part of the job. On this last assignment for @natgeo books we photographed 3 National Parks and logged countless miles over the course of a week. With heavy camera gear we tried to bring to life a slightly different take on some commonly photographed places.  @jeffreybrundage & @mitchellquiring brought to the table such a strong work ethic on this trip often going out alone at night to set up a time lapse for hours or hike into the desert before sunrise for a shot a top a sand dune while I was setting out for my own angle. Beyond just great camera skills, having someone with you that has years of Search & Rescue training is a perk when you are working on a job in the remote backcountry and often “trail” less backcountry. 

This trip was one I’ll never forget. Thanks fellas
