As Cody Booth made his yearly migration to Alaska in search of untouched lines and epic powder – The weather was less then cooperative.

Armed with a map and pending weather forecast a decision was made to head west…as far west as possible.

The Aleutians were formed by volcanic reaction and to this day still host large active volcanoes; many with lines, couloirs and untouched possibilities. – An adventure to unbelievable to pass up for Thomas Delfino and Aspen Rain Weaver, who headed north to meet Cody in the wild frontier.

Weather, grizzly bears, and a lack of amenities made this into one of the grittiest missions to date. The little town welcomed these unusual visitors but the surrounding terrain made no concessions, forcing the crew to get creative as they searched for first descents and fresh lines.

See it all in Find Snowboarding: ALEUTIANS, the second of three full films from Rome Snowboards
