Reginald D. Hunter's Songs of the Border(en)
Against the backdrop of President Trump's much-trumpeted wall, Reginald D. Hunter takes a 2,000-mile road trip along the US-Mexico border to explore how romance and reality play out musically where third-world Mexico meets first-world USA on this broken road to the American dream. Classic American pop and country portray Mexico as a land of escape and romance, but also of danger; Hunter explores the border music as it is today, much of it created by musicians drawn from the 36 million Mexican-Americans who are US citizens.

El Gringo Eskiador(fr)
In June 1978, Patrick Vallençant made the first ski descent of the southeast face of Artesonjaru in Peru, in the Cordillera Blanca, 6,000 meters above sea level and 60° of slope. He left Huaraz on horseback, a donkey carrying his equipment. While crossing Cajas, the last village on the trail to Lake Paron, he was greeted by Victor and Cesar, two Indians who accompanied him to the lake. The climb to the summit was tiring, requiring as much effort from his arms as from his legs. The beginning of the descent was hesitant, the slope extremely steep. He achieved his feat on June 9, his thirty-second birthday.

The Lost Coast(en)
Traversing the continent’s most rugged shoreline and dodging the tidal surge of the Pacific Ocean, the United States ultra-runner Dylan Bowman attempts the Fastest Known Time for traversing California’s Lost Coast. Shrouded in myth – and fog – the Lost Coast describes a section of California coastline so forbidding that it stymied even the most dogged engineers, who carved Highway One out of thousands of miles of West Coast forests and beaches. Highway One, which (often in combination with Highway 101) stretches from Orange County to Canada, makes only one exception to its coast-hugging route: the Lost Coast, where it veers inland, defeated by the vertiginous cliffs of the King Range.
