Turns on top of the world…
Yesterday saw a long pursued dream come to reality! Skiing the GRAND TETON!
3 years since learning how to ski, 3 years of pushing myself in the mountains… all for a day of incredible adventure full of rotten boot packs, active waterfalls, emotional summits, and perfect corn skiing in the Ford (on very heavy legs). All in killer style!
For me, this is a big deal because my first winter in the Tetons (3 years ago) I looked up to the Grand and knew one day I wanted to ski it. It’s the first time I’ve truly spent years honing all areas of my skills to accomplish something, and here we are!!
Huge huge thank you’s to @ela.reithmayr22 for being my #1 supporter, to the wizard @brandon.wanthal for teaching me the ways of ski mountaineering since year one, and to @jackkuenzle and @evokeendurance for pushing my fitness to new levels this year.
Photos/videos
1) Hop turns into the Ford
2) Early morning going up the Teepe
3) Summit selfie!
4) Done with the ice and on to the top
5) Topping out of the Chevy
6) SUMMIT!
7) Perfect corn and heavy legs!
8) One of many rappels on the way down
What a blessing it is to move in these mountains!
