TGR: Stoke the Fire

Mica Heli

There's a first time for everything

 

Mica history was made when our beloved Mount Dunkirk, the iconic peak that overlooks our lodge, was  skied for the first time by The North Face athletes Ian McIntosh, Christina Lustenberger and Nick McNutt.

This legendary peak (3016 m) is quintessential to the whole Mica experience. It is the first view you set your eyes upon when you fly across Kinbasket Lake, the first peak the morning sun kisses, and easily the most photographed view. It is truly the backdrop to all the Mica magic.

It was a pretty special day for the Mica lodge staff to watch it happen right from our front porch. “Extremely stoked” would be an accurate description for the vibes at the lodge.

Big congrats and high fives to Ian, Christina, Nick, the Teton Gravity film crew, and of course our skilled pilots and guides who brought this goal to fruition.
