One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While working at a research station in the Yukon (Northern Canada), I took a double-proof shot of whisky with a human toe at the bottom. I'm now a proud member of the SourToe Cocktail Club.
I also spent some time working at the IceField Discovery base on the Kaskawulsh Glacier, where Mt. Logan (the highest peak in Canada) can be found.
