Grey Wolf

3/18 to 3/19/2023 – There are certain ski lines that linger in the back of your mind for a long while. This is one of those ski lines: Grey Wolf Peak’s West Couloir. This little beauty is a Western Montana classic that has been well publicized on the internet ever since RandoSteve posted up a […]

The Taste of the Tetons

1/6 to 1/9/2023 – I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to poke around in quite a few of the mountain ranges of the North American west, but for some unclear reason I have always just driven past the Tetons. My younger self idealized classic steep skiing there and certainly put it on […]

Empty Asulkan Weekend

5/5 to 5/8/2022 – I received an unexpected message from Burket a few days before this trip asking if I had any interest in a last minute booking of the Asulkan Hut off Rogers Pass, BC. The hut looked empty that weekend and there was still decent snow coverage so I figured why not? Burket […]

May Bob Marshall Snow Survey

4/26 to 4/30/2018 – Keeping along the lines of chronological order (and being way out of season) here is a real highlight trip of this last spring.

Some Family Outings

4/1 to 5/9/2016 – When you get a call from your best buddies proposing that they might come stay with you for a month, take them up on it.  Then they’ll stay longer.  And keep coming back. And that’s the best part. That was the case when Jonny and Leslie came back to town last […]

The Yoho Traverse

3/22 to 3/25/2016 – Being that we live so close to the border, Grete and I had a major Canadian itch to scratch this last ski season.  We wanted to get our feet wet with Canadian ski traversing and hoped to get to see some gigantic glaciers too!  Thankfully, we had friends (Anthony and Becca) […]

Mid-Winter Goodness

2/1 to 3/13/16 – Again, I’ve gotten behind on the blog.  The reason for this delay is that good friends, plentiful adventures and great weather have forced me outside and away from my computer… schucks! Well, here goes another little posting about a whole bunch of wonderful wanderings out in the woods from mid-season this […]

Winter So Far…

12/1/2015 to 1/31/2016 – It was a mighty unusual transition back from Costa Rica’s hot, humid,  sun-filled tropical climate to NW Montana’s cold, grey, snow-filled winter one… but we were really excited to be home again.  We were easily distracted from our climatic concerns by the thing we missed the most while adventuring: our beloved big white […]
