Last time I Frontier

Went to Last Frontier Heli Operation in Northern BC. Best Part of the trip= Hanging out with Kevin, Cory, and my new found Rowdesian friends: Chris and Pete. Thanks for being rad guys! Not to mention the rad staff there at the operation– the bar-tender was one of the coolest girls I’ve met all year! So frankly– didn’t get to ski much, and what we did ski was a few sandwiches short of a picnic. We did some REALLY really mellow skiing. But- o well- the window shopping was incredible.

Crested Butte for a week

 

Filming in Crested Butte with Warren Miller from Feb 4-12. I was shooting with Wendy Lynsey and Grete… and “the band”. We had a riot with everyone–the Warren Miller crew, the band, and the athletes–incredible chemistry… and  tons of good times. We had an absolute blast. The snow in CB is better than it’s ever been. We shredded around through some of the sickest pow and steepest runs in the US. WOW. Thanks for incredible treatment from Crested Butte and our awesome mountain guide Eric “H” Baumm!
