Nicolas Bakken-French
Guide
Nicolas Bakken-French is an avid environmentalist who is most content in the fresh air and motivated by the humbling beauty of Mother Nature in all her forms, but especially in ice! His work and education have taken him from the glaciers of Iceland to the now-gone glacier of the Trinity Alps in California. In addition to studying glaciers he is a ski patroller and has guided throughout Alaska. And, he is also a professional photographer but says, “Glaciers are truly the greatest artists of the natural world.”
