It's that time of year again! Camp is back in session and everyone couldn't be more stoked. Freeskier Magazine brought Karl Fostvedt, Joss Christensen, and Keri Herman for the Session 1 takeover. When they weren't giving away gear the crew took advantage of Mt. Hood's endless terrain and rode everything down to the last public park rail.
