About the Author

Mark Rose is a commercial helicopter and fixed wing pilot with many hours flying in the Alaskan Bush. He was in charge of contract operations building the 28 mountain sites for the Alaska Pipeline, a 24/7 three year undertaking. He grew up on the fringe of the Alaskan wilderness, hunting and trapping in bear country and later flying hunters into Alaska's frontier Arctic. Rose has over 40 years flying experience in both fixed wing and helicopters, and is also the author of The Noah Code, a work resultant of his 25 years working directly in the mining industry around the world.
