🥇 Helicopter Glacier Trekking in Juneau, Alaska by @dtam

On one rainy day in Juneau I watched the poor shore concierge team as flight after flight of sightseeing helicopters postponed and outright canceled. There was a lot of confusions as some of these calls to cancel come at the last minute. On this day though I would get very lucky. All of a sudden a young girl called my group to head towards a waiting van. I really couldn't believe my luck. We jumped in and drove north out of town towards the airport. Once there we got all geared up with waterproof layers, boots, survival packs in the form of fanny packs, gloves, and even waiters. We walked out to a waiting helicopter and off we went!

🥈 Old Town of Rouen France by @leaky20

Rouen was one of the first places that my wife and I traveled to when we came to France and it really left an impression on us during that initial visit.

🥉 New Year's Snow Adventure: Trekking to Baleni Pass by @himalayanwomb

It is winter in the entire Himalayas and the first beef has fallen all around. Our friend says that we don't need to take a tent as there are huts built by the local sheep and goat herders, we will go and stay in them and go to Baleni the next day and come back and stay in the hut.
