2011 CS Irwin COSMIC Rando Race

The first race of the Colorado Ski Mountaineer Cup season is in the books.  And what a race!  Different from last year being a full on powder day with a January like snowpack and 2 feet of fresh powder, this time the athletes were greeted by thin conditions and October like weather.  But, as race organizer said, “it’s a ski mountaineering race” and part of the attraction is dealing with conditions presented to you.  Safety and preparedness are the emphasis.  But tell that to the top end of the field.  The seasons leading up to now have initiated a strong and elite field of men and women racers that all know how to go fast, take chances and have fun!  Please visit the COSMIC sites to read more and look at results.

A small sampling of my work over the years.  Some good stuff, old stuff, junk and work in progress.  Careful it will suck you in.

Marmot Grind – Arapaho Basin Cosmic

The Marmot Grind held at Arapaho Basin Ski Area is the last in a series of 9 Ski Mountaineering races held in Colorado this winter.  I want to say how great it was to follow the series and meet the racers along the way, thanks to everybody that included me and helped me out.  A special thanks to Pete Swenson and Bryan Wickenhauser for inspiring me and the masses to get out there and ski while you can, no matter what the conditions are!

Purple in June


If you read the Photo of the Weekly 7 you know about my attempt to ski every month of the year I turned 40. This is June, 2008. After a colossal snowfall the previous winter, we were set up to ski well into the summer and even fall, right up until it started snowing again. March, April and May were no brainers as the snowpack was still thick and rich. June presented a few more constraints.

Summer Pilgrimage

Even though it has been snowing on and off for weeks my thoughts have been on spring and spring skiing.  Even though everyone is talking about biking and the desert, I’m trying to focus on skiing the peaks of Crested Butte this spring and summer.  Our snowpack is deep from a good snowfall this winter and will provide for some good skiing despite the “gray” layer that arrived instead of the “red dust layer” of past winters.
