Honestly, besides the last video in the small segments they are on the sand, they still walk the fucking bikes. Or use kayaks. I didn't watch all 60 minutes though.
The reason why skis make the advantage of wideness is because of the side cut. They can still carve outside of deep powder. Also the surface area and stiffness makes them tougher. I am not convinced on the purpose of those bikes. There are successful, exciting methods of trekking the Yukon, and the videos above show that those bikes are not one of them. I could add sweet melissa to a video of my commute to school and convince anyone that what I'm doing is majestic.
Also, outside of getting to the pacific northwest, i fail to find the reason for them.
