Steep and Deep in the Mushroom Kingdom: Skiing in the Alaska Range

Storm after storm pummeled the Sierra this winter dropping almost 3 times the normal amount of snow. By April, the sun came out transforming it all to perfect corn and I decided to make the pilgrimage, like many other friends. This video highlights five awesome days of skiing around Bishop, California in the Eastern Sierra: - 4/19: Mount Emerson N Couloir Wahoo Gully with Nick B and Pat. 12.5 m...

In mid March, conditions lined up perfectly for Nate, Matthew, and I to ski Mount Shuksan. From Sunday to Monday, Baker received 2-3ft of snow followed by calm, clear weather. A couple avalanche accidents on the Shuksan Arm and Slate Mountain on Tuesday and Wednesday gave us reason to be cautious. We had originally planned to ski Shuksan on Thursday but decided to push our trip to Friday to giv...

In early March, Tai, Tyler, David, Danika, Keenan, Nicole, Cam, and I spent 5 days skiing out of the Cornucopia yurt in the Southern Wallowas. Conditions were generally stormy with excellent powder and a few gorgeous sun breaks. Thanks Tai and Tyler for the footage and some great skiing! Music: We Are Your Friends - Justice and Simian

Planned for a full value day in the Tetons with Nate and Matthew but strong winds and rapid warming made us reconsider our plans and seek out sheltered powder instead. Still a beautiful and awesome day!

Some highlights from skiing around Chamonix in mid-April 2022 with Nate and Zack including: - Glacier Rond to Chamonix - Vrai Vallée Blanche-Brèche Puiseux-Glacier du Mont Mallet - Glacier des Rouges du Dolent

In June 2022, Thomas and I took the School for International Expedition Training's 12-day high-altitude ski mountaineering course in the Cordillera Blanca led by Josh Beckner. We flew into Lima and then took a bus to Huaraz where we stayed for a week to acclimate. We hiked up to Yanapaccha base camp and spent several more days acclimating and practicing skills on the glacier. Once acclimated, w...

Nate, Zack, and I drove from Chamonix to La Fouly and started hiking in the early afternoon. Snow coverage was spotty until around Léchère Dessus. We continued up through Petit Col Ferret to the Bivacco Fiorio which was totally empty. After a warm night in the hut we started at around 7am and skinned up to the summit block. We brought our skis to the summit but the final section was too steep, ...

After watching the weather forecast all morning, Nate and I finally decided to go for Mont Blanc and left our apartment in Chamonix Sud at 1pm. We hiked up past the entrance of the Mont Blanc Tunnel to La Para and put our skis on at about 1,800m (6,000ft). We followed the path of the old tram up to Gare des Glaciers and traversed to the Glacier des Bossons. After a sketchy crossing of La Joncti...

Some lines from a few weeks of skiing in Austria in late February-early March 2022. After a few weeks of skiing in Arlberg and Kitzbühel I went to Heiligenblut, a tiny town in Carinthia in Southern Austria. Heiligenblut sits at the base of Austria's highest mountain: the Großglockner. Storms with extreme wind but little snow made the skiing difficult but one afternoon the winds died down and I ...

One day on a two week trip to Revelstoke and Rogers Pass when the conditions aligned for a perfect day on the Little Sifton Traverse with Matthew and Thomas. Music: What I Be - Everyone Deserves Music - Michael Franti & Spearhead

This fall in Utah, the first snow fell on October 8 and continuous storms brought over 5 feet of snow to the upper reaches of Little Cottonwood Canyon by the end of the month. It was the snowiest October in the past decade by a wide margin. November came in warm and dry, melting snow off all but the highest North-facing terrain. Fortunately, Alta is open to uphill travel for most of the fall an...

Matthew and I climbed West McMillan Spire, the most accessible peak in the incredibly inaccessible Picket Range of the North Cascades. We started at 6:30am from the Upper Goodell Creek Group Campground just outside of Newhalem and ran about 4 miles along Goodell Creek. Then, a steep 4,000' climb through the rainforest and a long traverse along heather benches with plenty of late-season hucklebe...
