As a photographer and seeker of all things adventure, having the opportunity to spend time in Iceland on assignment with Kuhl Apparel and Aurora Arktika in the West Fjords was blissfully inspiring. Kuhl is an amazing Utah-based online retailer and Aurora Arktika is a world famous sailing and adventure company, with their initial exposure often credited to Chris Burkard. We couldn't think of a better co-sponsor affiliation, not only do both brands match our personal off-grid verve aesthetic, but Kuhl's quality materials and functionality set the tone for a pristine adventure. Not only were we protected from the shifting weather elements but we would be looking pretty dang cool as well (highly unoriginal pun but entirely necessary to mention).
