After consulting with JP Auclair on the soon to be released Alpine Initiatives website – I began sorting through the masses of media we used to share back and forth.
This video amazed me back in 2005 and it still amazes me today. Shot in April, 2005 while skiing little goat in Haines Alaska. After I acknowledge he could be dead, JP recalls…
“hmm.. hard to say.. Seth was on top behing me.. so I’m sure he would have got to me in time.”
Even with someone like Seth Morrison who is exceptionally talented in the backcountry, I don’t think I would like to get caught in an avalanche.

I managed to make it up by 3:00pm for 2 runs and 3 beers. The snow is fantastic and Mary Jane is expected to open on Saturday.
“Warren Miller… for 86 years that man has known what’s up. Get your ass out of the office – pack your car – ride a bus – carpool – get your ass to the mountains.”
Two things to note…
1) Monday – Thursday: Pass holders get $1 off beers (Blue Moon, Mary Jane, Coors Light, Coors O) at the Sunspot Bar and you can get a burger and a beer for $10.
2) Happy hour at the Derailer bar from 2:00pm – 4:00pm is fantastic. Cheap food specials + $2.50 Coors Lights + O’s.

A nice revisit to a good friend doing good things. I asked Chris back in May when he posted this video what he was possibly thinking about when he conceptualized this idea...
“Just trying to push the limits of extreme, I wanted to do something that hadn’t been done before. I consider this accomplishment as important as the invention of the internet, or even television for that matter.”

I'm becoming a super fan of theRSA.org – But don’t visit their website because it is atrocious. You can’t preach such amazingly inspiring ideas yet follow the exact same “paradigm of crappy web design”. My jingle.
Less than a week before we all Matty boy turn into “old balls” in an evening not soon to be forgotten. Below I have listed the information straight from Senor Brian who we all owe big time for this generous gift to Matt. We will be flying on the world’s fastest civilian aircraft in the sky… a Citation X.
Plane departs 5:30pm out of landmark at San Diego airport. You should all be there by 5:00pm if possible, 5:15pm at the latest. They will wait for you, but don’t be late as it will screw up their flight plan.
The pilots should only need to see your ID.
There will be catering on the plane, along with booze, water, pop, etc. Help yourselves to anything on there – even the small booze bottles in the bar area. You will have to serve yourself during the flight. Trays flip up along the wall between the seats. Feel free to move around and do that as soon as the seatbelt lights are off. You can also talk to the pilots at anytime during the flight – feel free to ask them anything during the flight – just walk up there and ask.
There will be a limo at Boeing field to take all of you to the party right from the airport. There is a bathroom in the terminal if someone needs to change, etc.
As far as I know half of you are staying at Pete’s and the other half at Matt’s. So I have the limo stopping at Pete’s at 12:30pm on Sunday, then going to Matt’s then dropping you off at the airport.
Try not to trash the plane too much :-)
Pilots don’t take tips, but if you can tip the ground crew ($10.00+ a head or so – usually 2-3 of them helping with luggage, etc) on both ends it is a good thing.
It’s been a long time coming — but now it’s final. Warren Miller officially owns his own name again. He just needs to stay away from using it around skiing. What does this mean? It means… that even though Warren Miller Entertainment (the film company) may have won the battle. Warren Miller (the man) won the war.
Here is a recap of what began last year beginning with the release of Level 1 Productions 10th film Refresh.
Continuing forward – lets start a link trail.

Thanks for the share from Colin Kaufman. I've seen a couple of these shots before, but there is a specific *holy shit* moment in this video that gets me. Can you guess where?
I'm still HSing it in my mouth a little.
We opened this pool back in March. Now the Dew Tour finals are visiting the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. I hope to make it for a day… Sunday.
