Binoculars dangle from his hands, providing him with an enhanced view of the awe-inspiring Alaskan landscape that surrounds him. As he takes a momentary break from exploring and documenting nature's wonders, our traveler indulges in one of life's simple pleasures - enjoying a pipe filled with tobacco.
