Road Trip….Tahoe > Whistler > Utah > Tahoe

As the season is winding down and summer is getting close, I decided to head to the glaciers around Whistler for a few last minute shots for the TGR film Re:Session coming out this Fall. I drove my old Jeep and towed my snowmobile 18 hours North to Pemberton for 2 sunny days of snowmobile skiing.  The mountains in British Columbia are amazing…it always blows my mind how much terrain you can access with your snowmobile.  We had really long days in the alpine and it was good to get back in the BC mountains.

After the short sunny window, I drove another 18 hours down to Snowbird, Utah for Dynastar’s “Spring Daze” event.  Luckily I had to drive right past the Twin Falls Bridge and naturally I needed to make a stop and BASE jump.

Each year Dynastar invites shop employees, managers, industry people to Snowbird for 4 days to hang out, catch a glimpse of the Dynastar family, and ski.  Hundreds of people show up to participate and the event always proves to be a good time!  The last night I had to give a presentation to 150 or so people about what I have been up too. I was happy to get that over with and head home the following day after a lot of driving.

I am home now but headed to LA in a couple days for the season finale of Nitro Circus.  We have signed on for season 2 and start filming in the middle of May…Time to rest and heal up!

Snowmobile and big mountain legend Dan Treadway. He was a great host as always and hes probably the most fun guy to be with in the mountains.

    Your driving skills in the finale are classic, and made me want to look at your page. So well done you. As for your solo jump… Were you completely alone in the middle of nowhere when you did that? I’m guessing yes because you took your picture.. What a life you lead! I went hiking by myself one. Even though I became extremely paranoid about mountain lions and ended up running back to my car with a stick; my mom’s still proud of me! You’re cool, and the show makes me feel inadequate. I love it. Thank you.
