    My Trips and Accomplishments


    I have been fortunate to be able to play in many of the world's great ranges, either climbing, skiing, mountain biking, paragliding or just hiking. We live in a remarkable place incomparable to any other place I have been. We are very lucky, very, very lucky. I think it is our responsibility to help others discover  our mountain world, their lives will improve as a result.
