In 1937, Bradford Washburn conquered Mount Lucania but was forced to leave behind irreplaceable gear, including his prized aerial camera, on the Walsh Glacier, a loss that he could never shake. Eight decades later, skier Griffin Post and glaciologist Dora Medrzycka lead a team of skiers, scientists, and explorers back into the Yukon’s shifting ice to chase the question that haunted Washburn: Could the cache still be out there? What begins as a search for lost equipment becomes something larger, a meditation on obsession, risk, and why certain mysteries refuse to stay buried, set against one of the most remote and unpredictable landscapes on Earth.
