Shane Patrick

Shane Patrick grew up on a mink farm in rural Wisconsin. He grew up riding dirt bikes, hunting and learned the ins and outs of raising mink. After graduating from University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point, he turned his head north and moved to Alaska.

Since landing in Alaska, he has lived in hunting camps, guided remote sea kayak trips, and started his own sea kayaking business.

You can find him now during the winters working full time for the Professional Ski Patrol at Alyeska Ski Resort in Girdwood, Alaska. He loves to ski powder and blow things up. Recently, he has been reintroduced to motorcycling and has since ridden in Alaska, Great Britain and India. He can't imagine traveling without a motorcycle!
