Watch “Everything Cold, Everything Remote”

We follow primitive tracks back to a prized Central American point, dive for uncut gems, and hang with a Canuck shredder. We also rap with the creator of The X-Files, pull into a Caribbean slab, and view the hazy frames of a contemporary shooter inspired by the past. Other sidecurrents include a life-changing ride with a former industry exec, a sci-fi journey into intergalactic creation, and a study of how a Mexican beachbreak is being altered by tourism and development. Pick up TSJ 35.5 for the full trip.
