Last spring, a film crew from Red Bull joined us on a few of our Centennial Ski Project peaks. They were producing an installment for the Faces of Dav series about Chris Davenport for Red Bull TV. You can watch the finished segment above.
I think they did an awesome job, in fact the whole eight-part series is worth watching (see it all here). Christy and I also provide a lot of commentary in Episode 8, “The Legend” should Episode 6, “The Mountaineer” pique your interest.
Check it out.
We finally made a trip to ski U.S. Grant Peak down in the San Juans up in Ice Lakes Basin.
Looking northeast towards Leadville and sea of summits including Mount Elbert and various 13er summits. A spring ski descent of Deer Mountain, 13,761 ft., in the Independence Pass region.
Christy and Chris taking it all in. A 2020 spring trip in to ski the East Face of "Siberia Peak" deep in the Elk Mountains

I’ll suggest it to Dav and the Red Bull team. That could be a fun one!
That was fun, thanks. Great shots abound but 4:18 and 6:22 in particular for me.
Happy skiing this spring, hope you git ‘er done!

This is really cool, Ted. Great commentary from the Mahons. Best of luck in capping off this project this Spring!
The mid winter thaw has gone on longer than it should. We’ll need a little more winter (or rather a lot) if we plan to get the remaining peaks skied. We’re thinking spring will be late and snowy like it’s been in recent years, so we’re still optimistic.

Agree, Ted. It is quite the lengthy mid-winter thaw. Hoping for a snowy Spring as well for you guys.

Best of luck guys (and gal)!
Come on snow!!!
Come on snow is right. Downright hot around here.
We met in Aspen in 2000 and have been happily stuck in the rockies ever since, getting out in the mountains every day we can, in every season and by all means possible. Read More
