Skiing the Greater Ranges of Kyrgyzstan may be a misnomer—it’s mostly taking your skis for a walk. Adrien Grabinski follows me-andering braided rivers toward the toe of the unnamed glacier where we would make camp with two weeks worth of food. Adrien and I made the 15-plus-mile (each way) slog twice (over 60 miles in total) to porter gear and food to base camp.
