U.S. Grant Peak
We finally made a trip to ski U.S. Grant Peak down in the San Juans up in Ice Lakes Basin.
Mount Blaurock
Deep in a valley south of Twin Lakes, CO lies Mount Blaurock, 13,616 ft. It’s an impressive summit, especially for skiing, with a wide northeast face that offers more than a half a dozen potential steep ski lines.
Willow Peak
A ski descent of the Northeast Couloir on Willow Peak, 13,336 ft.
Mount Arkansas
The Moonshine Couloir on Mount Arkansas might be the most committing line off a high 13er in the Tenmile/Mosquito Range
Snowmass Mountain – the Big Bowl
The big East Face of Snowmass Mountain is one of the best 14er ski descents in the Elk Mountains.
Mount Tweto
Easy access from Highway 91 by Fremont Pass, a gentle approach up the valley, and an interesting couloir that keeps you on your feet all make Mount Tweto a worthy spring ski descent.
Berner Oberland Ski Traverse
A five day ski traverse (loop) through the Berner Oberland region of the Swiss Alps with huts, summits, good weather and bad.
Spring Season
The days are longer, the temperatures warmer, and the snowpack, though thin, is stablizing. We love the arrival of spring because it signifies the start of our backcountry ski touring season.
Mount Whitney
If you’re into skiing 14ers and you’re in the Sierra’s, it’s natural to want to ski Mount Whitney.
Mount Langley
Our trip to the Sierras started with a ski descent of the Northeast Couloir on Mount Langley, the southernmost 14er in California’s Sierra Nevada Mountains.
