Thank you Austria, for the memorable tour through Thank you Austria, for the memorable tour through your Silvretta Alps 🙏🇦🇹😊 snow, sun, schnapps, amazing people and huts, during a five-day ski adventure with @aspenchristy, which was just what we needed after a sub-par ski season back at home. ❄️⛷️👍 This region is worth a visit, the ski terrain is top-notch, the huts are great, and the Austrian hospitality brought it all together in a way that made for a special trip. And a ski day at @ischgl_com, complete with a proper aprés should be included as well! 🍻🕺🏻 #alps #skitour #silvretta @jamtalhuette @kastle_usa #forskiers @stio #lettheoutsidein

We made it to the amazing Jamtal Hut despite pretty challenging conditions and couldn't be happier to be here! Stunning location, super-nice staff, great food- now if we could only get a little visibility... we'll see what the next few days deliver ❄️❄️❄️🙏#alwaysgo #silvretta #alps #huttrip ⛷️🏔️👍 @jamtalhuette @kastle_usa #forskiers @stio 😊

New adventures ahead — and this time, not in the m New adventures ahead — and this time, not in the mountains. 🏔️✨
Yesterday, I had the honor of being sworn in as a member of the Pitkin County Board of County Commissioners, representing District Two. I’m truly grateful to have been appointed after an application process alongside eight other qualified applicants. Stepping into this role is both exciting and humbling, and I’m ready to dig in and help shape the future of the place we all call home. Thank you to everyone who supported and encouraged me. I take this responsibility seriously and am committed to dedicating the time, energy, and thoughtfulness it deserves. Because this appointment fills a vacated seat, I’ll be running in the November election to continue serving in this position. More to come soon — but if you’d like to support the campaign, drop a comment below and I’ll make sure you're on the list! Grateful for this community. Grateful for this opportunity. 🙏 @pitcogov

I'm hoping the pattern has changed and we'll see more regular snow🤞but it's hard to deny it feels like we're just going to revert back to the same sun and warm temps - which makes getting out on a tour all the more special! #alwaysgo #backcountryskiing #aspen #elks @aspenchristy @kastle_usa #forskiers

Love this place! 🇨🇱 fortunate that the fickle weat Love this place! 🇨🇱 fortunate that the fickle weather has cooperated so far- we haven't been shut down an any day we've been out, the two rainy days we've had have coincided on our travel days when we weren't skiing anyway! After Lonquimay and Llaima, we managed to pull off a one-day ski of Lanin, followed by Villaricca, and then Quetrupillan. That's five different volcanoes climbed and skied in about as many days. 👍 Thanks to @ngrstyle for showing us the way on Villaricca- what an awesome day with an amazing local guide- I highly recommend Rodrigo if you're in Chile and need one, or even if you don't but want some local flavor- you won't regret going out with him! Now we're moving south from Pucón to Puerto Varas to check out Volcan Osorno and keep the adventure going! 🌋⛷️😁 #chile #skichile #pucon #volcanvillarrica #alwaysgo #skimountaineering @kastle_usa #forskiers @stio #lettheoutsidein #andes #volcanlanin
Chile ski adventure 2025 🇨🇱 we had two great days Chile ski adventure 2025 🇨🇱 we had two great days on two volcanoes so far- Lonquimay and Llaima - the sun and corn snow we got one day ☀️was countered with frozen spring snow, whiteout, and high winds 💨 the likes of which we haven't experienced in a while, if ever at all at this level. Definitely the type of conditions that makes things memorable! 😆 Now we're in Pucon, enjoying a rainy day out of our ski boots, checking out all this amazing place has to offer. Tomorrow we'll be back out in nicer weather on some more local volcanoes, looking forward to the continued adventure! 🌋⛷️😀👍 #chile #volcán #skichile #andes #alwaysgo #skimountaineering @aspenchristy @kastle_usa #forskiers @stio #lettheoutsidein

Nice to find cold, snowy conditions in here Austria 🇦🇹 And always fun to have a shake out ski day in a new ski resort before launching into a five-day ski traverse. Seems like a fitting place to celebrate the life of Dick Jackson. Our first ski traverse in Alps was over 20 years ago with him! And he’s been inspiring us ever since 💫🙏✨🏔️❄️🎿🇦🇹 #alps #silvretta #skitraverse #huts #ishcgl @stio @tedmahon @kastle_usa
