Mountain Mentoring

Feb 7, 2018

Last year I had the opportunity to be a part of an amazing mentorship program that the Aspen Middle School conducts annually with their 6th-grade students. I was approached by an impressive 11-year old girl who asked if I would be willing to participate in the program as her mentor for ski mountaineering.

“What It Takes to Climb Every Colorado ‘14er’ in Skis”

“What It Takes to Climb Every Colorado ‘14er’ in Skis”

Mar 19, 2015

From the Wall Street Journal, March 17, 2015. We’ll leave it to the Wall Street Journal to ask that question, in a story that ran in Tuesday’s paper about Christy, 14ers, her training, and more. It was a cool story, and considering how often the press misses the mark on topics outside of their expertise, I think they did a really good job. (more…)

Climbing and Skiing Colorado’s Mountains – the guidebook

Feb 24, 2014

The new, must-have guidebook to Colorado backcountry skiing and ski mountaineering. As a Colorado backcountry skier, the mere prospect of spring brings excitement. But I found myself particularly psyched for the upcoming season after poring over a copy of the new guidebook, Climbing and Skiing Colorado’s Mountains – 50 Select Ski Descents.

What’s the tallest named “hill” in the count What’s the tallest named “hill” in the country? (hint: it’s elevation is 13,761 ft.) ⛷🏔 the #colorado #ski13ers #backcountryskiing season is winding down. Still some good 🌽❄️ to be found but it’s going quick ☀️☀️☀️
Making the best of challenging snow conditions las Making the best of challenging snow conditions last weekend in the San Juans. It’s always better to be skiing than not, right? ⛷
It’s disappointing to have the spring season trashed by airborne dust and dirt though. 👎 Experts say the continuing drought in the American West is all but ensuring this spring phenomenon will happen with increasing frequency— and even earlier in the season— in the years ahead. 👎 Let’s hope those forecasts are wrong. The spring backcountry season is already short enough. 📷 @aspenchristy
