From the transcript

The heliskiing community is here. People who knew Greg through the mountain ranges that surround us today. The Alaska Range to our west, the Chugach Mountains to our south and east, and the Talkeetna Mountains to our north. These are places he loved to fly and flew with passion. And then judging from a recent picture I saw of Greg and Kelly, it was clearly Greg's happy place.
