Brian McCullough moved to Alaska in 1977 from Fresno, California to work on his uncle's gold mines in the foothills of Denali. Brian quickly caught the adventurous spirit and built his homestead on a high ridge above Talkeenta. His passion for all things mountaineering and building custom homes filled over four decades while living in Alaska. His first mountain rescue with the 'Mountain Maniacs' saved 2 lives from a plane crash at 10,000 on Denali in the month of December, 1981. This led to Brian's role participating in high mountain rescues in Denali National Park. Brian worked as a guide for several guiding companies on the slopes of the highest mountain of North America. He shares his observations of climate change in the Alaska Range through the lens of his camera. His photography has been shared throughout hundreds of lectures of climbing in the Alaska Range. As a master carpenter, his first sawmill that he acquired at age 22, cutting lumber out of the vast forest surrounding Talkeetna, shaped his life building custom homes. Above all, Brian loves sharing his passion for adventure and the outdoors with others.
