Ashley Montague a amazing artist, curator, and visionary from Portland OR who put together an all digital art show at Backspace gallery in downtown showcasing six artists including myself. I am super stoked to be a part of this show. All art is printed on canvas, and is a stunning collection. I was lucky to get to pop in for the opening of the show last Thursday with some friends and was a great experience. Big thanks to Ashley for setting this shit off!!
Below is a showing of the pieces I have on display.
In Alaska, totems are everywhere, at the airport, the hotel, in peoples yards, outside of stores, and in parks to name a few. I love the look, the style and the meaning behind these pieces of art.
Above is a carving from our hotel, this image is of a “eye in hand” symbol of protection and good health.
What a strange place to ski, you never know what the day will bring. After hanging out for over a week in weather that pulses in and out leaving blue skies over the valley and clagg over the mountains, this morning brings promise.
Yesterday the forecast for today seemed spotty, now suddenly its time to head to the hanger, who knows what will happen next, no one knows, we just go.
There has been a revolution in AT equipment finally giving alpine backcountry touring skiers a dependable, bomber, user friendly system to access the goods. It comes in the form of a binding adapter, that works with nearly all alpine bindings on the market. I have been using The MFD All-Time for a year now (in prototype stage) and my life has changed.
Vars France hosted the LineCatcher for the third year, and again the level of skiing was elevated. An amazing event went down, and the comradery and vibe between the riders was full of stoke and genuine positivity. The terrain in the vars area is paradise for skiing, they have one of the best parks in Europe, huge couliors within short hikes, and tons of natural jump locations.
With the new snow in the mountains all around the west, cold temperatures creeping in, and storms on the horizon I thought it was a good time to share some stoke. I put together a helmet cam vid from some mid winter fun last year while shredding in Jackson.
I feel super lucky to get to head down south to Argentina for a Atomic photo shoot. The crew is Dana Flahr, Tim durtshi, myself and Adam Clark shooting photos. We rolled into town and met up with Mark Lasseter founder of Southamericaski.com who has been helping us out with logistics while we explore Bariloche. The skiing has been spring like but it has been a blast, any turns made in the summer are great, so we have been stoked.
