Filming, Competing, and….Getting Handcuffed at Gunpoint

Best view in the world It has been an all-time winter at Jackson Hole. So good, in fact, it’s been hard to leave. It’s not that we’ve had a ton of big storms, just a lot of eight or ten inch days. This has been ideal both from a sanity stand point (not waiting long [...]

2010 US Crested Butte US Extreme Freeskiing Championships Winning Runs

With the “Extremes” kicking off tomorrow I thought I’d post last year’s winning runs. It was deep then, and with two days of snow in the forecast, it should be deep again tomorrow. Since they already used the weather day, we’re keeping our fingers crossed that we get at least one day off. If you’re [...]

Needless to say, it’s unreal up here. Located an hour and a half from Smithers, B.C., [...]

Chamonix Pov w/Commentary

Well, I’m about two months behind on editing my POV, so here’s a quick edit from the Euro travels earlier this winter with my extremely insightful commentary (talks are in the works with Morgan Freeman to narrate, but nothing has been finalized at this point). As a note, I didn’t end up with a bunch [...]

Source to Sea

Start at point A, finish in Kotzebue in the lower left (sorry for the super gheto screen shot). I can’t really get a map that will do this trip justice, so for an interactive map click here. The problem with adventure travel is that it’s a lot like a drug: it’s expensive, addictive and, if [...]

Bird Brain, with some bird brains

Bird Brain I love Jackson. Like sex and pizza, even when it’s bad, it’s still good. Case and point was this last week. Although there wasn’t blower pow anywhere in bounds, there’s still lots of stuff to do out the back. This couloir is off the backside somewhere. “I think, if you just point it [...]
