Purple Mound, 2622m, Lake Louise, BC 🇨🇦 We’ve skied named peaks, mounts and mountains, points, needles, ridges, and hills— and countless translations of these terms in other languages— but we had never skied from the summit of a named mound. Thanks to @richburkley for showing us around @skilouise 🙏 and taking us on the Purple Mound tour ⛷️👍💯 It was a cool loop through beautiful mountains, fun skiing, and a memorable day! (And way to dress for the day @aspenchristy)

Up and over the passes we go! Annual run to visit Up and over the passes we go! Annual run to visit to Willow Lake and Red, a dear frog 🐸 that was buried there in 1998. Frolicking in the high alpine flowers that are starting to pop and adding much needed colors to our days. Still so sad to arrive at Maroon Bells and not have our National Forest staff and facilities (including drinking water for people visiting from all over the world) being supported as they should due to budgets from the current administration. #mountainsarecalling #ProtectPublicLands #protectwhatyoulove #fundtheforestservice @stio

That a wrap for us! Feeling grateful for all the s That a wrap for us! Feeling grateful for all the snow we were able to ski this spring despite a below average year, especially in the San Juans. As of this season, we’ve skied 141 of the top 200 peaks in Colorado and putting together some fun plans for next spring! Now bring on summer! ☀️🤗⛷️🏔️ @kastle_usa @stio #lettheoutsidein #ski13ers #secondseason #bicentennials #skimountaineering #colorado #highpeaks
May 18th dropped a full-on snowstorm over the San May 18th dropped a full-on snowstorm over the San Juans! ❄️🌨️ Making the summit of Rolling Mountain (13,697 ft) in whiteout conditions a pretty wild time. Days like these remind me why I love ski mountaineering: overcoming challenges, pushing through, being unplugged, and feeling so tired that Monday at the office sounds really nice. @mouseschocolate for the reward 🐭 #SpringSkiing #SkiMountaineering #SanJuans #RollingMountain #13,697 #Colorado #Bicenntenial #Skithe13ers #Type2Fun #EarnYourTurns #Forskiers #Moose #Ptarmigan #lettheoutsideinside @stio @kastle_usa
