  • The Real Aspen Extreme (0) February 16, 2012

    This weekend I’ll be holding my annual Real Aspen Extreme ski camp with Aspen Atmos Adventures.

    Aspen/Snowmass is consistently ranked as one of the best ski resorts in the world. You get something that is so much more than a ski trip, you get an experience. Only 10 people will have the chance to be a part of this 3 day adventure with me and fellow ski guides. The trip will include one day of on-mountain skiing at one of the four Aspen/Snowmass mountains, one day of slack-country skiing and one day of true backcountry. The on-mountain day will include a gear demo of the equipment that I use to perform at the highest level including Kastle Skis, Smith Optics and an unprecedented look at my brand-new line from Spyder.

    A portion of this trip’s proceeds will be going to support the Colorado Avalanche Information Center. Please click on Giving Back to learn more.

    Package Inclusions: This trip includes backcountry guides, lift tickets, all ground transportation in Aspen/Snowmass, gear rentals and some meals. We would be happy to help arrange lodging as well.

    Fitness Level: Skiers should be expert skiers and some backcountry experience would be helpful but is not necessary. We will be skiing at a fast pace and on challenging black terrain with variable snow conditions. You should be able to ski all the black diamond runs on your home mountain without injury.

    Hope to see you out there,
