crested butte on seshn

Forum rider, Scottie Kees, videographer, Jameson Walter and myself headed to Crested Butte in March of 08′ to film some back counrty goodness. When we arrived we met up with locals, Austin Gibney and Brady Farr. We had the entire week to take sleds out and explore the endless features that Crested Butte had to offer.

With our local guides, we set out early Monday morning. With great weather on our side, the possibilities were limitless. We ventured out, spotting lines and other features, but decided that some of the conditions we’re unstable due to the amount of snow Crested Butte had seen so far(a record amount). So we settled with a step down that the locals had done the season before. With good light and good conditions and just about no set up time needed, it was on.
