As adventures go, it doesn't get any better than this. A week-long trek to the top of the world, into the icy frontier of Alaska. An epic landscape that defies description. And that's just the beginning. We went to the very heart of Alaska's glacier country, where the giant icebergs begin. And we can tell you, it's no place for the faint-hearted. For Michael Usher, ice used to be a very foreign concept indeed. Not any more. Michael has walked across it, climbed it, paddled through it and simply marvelled at its majestic beauty. He's also learned a thing or two about how much it all means to us and the planet. For over forty years, 60 Minutes have been telling Australians the world’s greatest stories. Tales that changed history, our nation and our lives. Reporters Liz Hayes, Tom Steinfort, Tara Brown, Nick McKenzie and Amelia Adams look past the headlines because there is always a bigger picture. Sundays are for 60 Minutes. #60MinutesAustralia
