I'm a senior at the Colorado School of Mines in Golden Colorado, which is a miserable little engineering school [despite the school's claim's otherwise] who's only redeeming quality is it's proximity some some of the best skiing in the world. [I'm just bitter cuz I suck at engineering haha...] This fall I'm taking some classes and Red Rocks CC in Lakewood, then transferring to Bouldizzle in the spring. I'm always looking for new people to ski with; if you live around Golden/Boulder and love to shred trees, backcountry, cliffs, Pow-pow, ect... shoot me a message and we'll go skiing sometime, especially now that I have a truck out here. Skiing is the one thing that truly makes me feel alive and there is now better feeling in the world than hittin' a big drop or rippin' some fresh pow. I have Fridays OFF this fall so holla if you want to hit up the BC this fall; I have a 4x4 truck so road conditions are no problem, you can find me on www.skicarpool.com as well. I'm a safe BC skier with experience and have beacon/avalung/shovel ect... and am looking for similiar partners for Loveland, Berthoud, Vail Passes, East Vail BC, ect.... If you have a sled that would be amazing haha.....

Good Ski photography is real art. Much respect to the talented crew of pro and amatuer ski photographers out there who are bringin' the sport to a wider audience every day.

Again, much respect to all the talented ski cinematographers out there; particularily my boys at TGR, Match Totally Stickin' it productions, Poor Boyz, and Plehouse, y'all are stayin true to the roots and essence of the sport; big up.
