Living in Jackson is not for the light heart. The sub zero temperatures can beat you down every day. Whenever I come to Jackson I feel like I step back in time. Just the other day a Moose stopped by the front door to check in. I often look into the sky half expecting to see a Pterodactyl flying by. Jackson is one of a kind.
My buddy Dana Flahr just showed up and brought more snow from up North. We have been shredding pow and are ready for the sun to come out so we can send it!
The last few days have been melancholy with the passing of our buddy Billy Poole. The tragic event opens your eyes to the dangers and consequences of our sport. I have a heavy heart and will miss Billy and his amazing spirit.
During the 2008 Apple Keynote Address, Steve Jobs showcased my TGR ski BASE segment as a podcast. Check it out…my part is halfway through (4:15 timecode).

A few more pow runs today!
Happy New Year! I have been hanging in Jackson for the past five days and the conditions have been perfect. The Tetons received tons of snow at the end of ‘07 and on the 1st day of ‘08 the sun came out. I have been filming with Jeremy Jones, Schroder Baker, and Lynsey Dyer for the new TGR film. It is good to be back in the mountains sending it! Check out some lines from New Years Day.
