Trust me. I’m smiling. It’s just that my cheeks are frozen. __________________________ Maybe the last great wilderness for skiing in Colorado. Crested Butte is best known for its famously steep terrain. Highly controversial at the time, in 1992, they hosted the Lower 48’s first extreme skiing competition. A local ski patrol was quoted as saying, “Well, it’s not like we’re taking skiers out of there in body bags!” The public naturally grabbed onto this and had two now famous runs named after the the patroller: Dead Bob’s Chute and Body Bag. Because its mostly granite, the passing glaciers only glanced off of the mountain, cutting cliffs so sheer that the southwest side, even for Crested Butte, is too steep to ski. But massive volcanic activity still produced a North Face terrain opening up the most sought-after steeps in North America. Really pushing the limits of what ski areas were allowing guests to ski on. Including Rambo, the steepest-cut run in the United States. “The infamous spot where people look over and throw up in their mouth a little bit. Rambo is always something you look down and think, even if it’s open, that it’s not skiable. Be prepared for aggressive jump turns as you avoid getting tripped out.” In short, an epic mountain on an epic day. I’m fairly certain that February 23, 2022 at Crested Butte was solid evidence that God exists. #ski #powderday #steepanddeep #visitgcb

Fall was just trying to have a peaceful moment… 🍁and then Mr. Winter came along and said “Is it cool if I jump in here…?” Fall had no choice and let out a sigh “It’s all good man, we can share the spotlight…” 🥹 Finally creating something I’m proud of… often running around on commercial projects, it can be challenging to stop and snap a few for myself. Note to self: don’t get so consumed in your work that you forget to create for yourself. Have a fantastic week out there, I hope you got out to see some amazing fall colors over the weekend.

My bathrobe makes me feel like Yoda. My toothbrush is giving me a “your light saber is bigger than mine” complex, so if anyone knows where I can order a 5 foot toothbrush, the information would be much appreciated. Oh, and here’s a shot of some flowers. visitgcb
