Aly

An Alaskan upbringing imbued Aly with serious thirst for adventure and a deep love for wild places and wild people. She’s a writer, photographer and filmmaker whose documentary films take on adventure, conservation and social impact issues. Aly is based out of White Salmon, WA where she runs Ursa Major, a multi-media production house serving outdoor brands and organizations that are doing good in the world. A lifelong skier, she converted to mountain biking after her first backpacking adventure on China's remote Tibetan Plateau. Aly is convinced bikes are the best way to travel.
