Down days in Haines, AK can be insanity, but if you’re lucky you can escape to Bruce Bauer’s boat, the Sundowner, for a much-needed breather. Bruce owns the Funny Farm lodge, and the camaraderie between the athletes and film crews always makes for a great time. This image was taken on my Nikon by Absinthe Films’ Patrick Armbruster, during a “pass the camera” session in 2005. Flip McCririck Gallerie 079
