This video has me pumped. Not because I would ever do this sort of thing, but because of the incredible Norwegian scenery these guys are jumping off of. As some of you may know, I am traveling to Norway this summer for six weeks! I actually bought my plane tickets way back in January, which was probably too early since I’ve been fairly obsessed about it since. I can’t wait.

I have no other news. This spring has been a big disappointment here in the San Juans; the dust storms of last month have destroyed the snowpack. Not only is the snowboarding season finished two months too early, but the snow looks so ugly that I don’t even want to do any photography in the mountains. The upside is that I’ve gotten LOTS of work done!

In about a week I’m headed up to the Tetons for a week of riding big lines there, where the snow is [hopefully] untouched by the desert dust.

    What are you riding in the Tetons? Is the Skillet on your list?

    Hey Scott,

    Yeah the Skillet’s on my wish list… but we don’t have any particular plans at this point. We’ll see.

    skidding across the mountain side like an eagle!
    I’m skydiving for years (slowly – low budget) but I’m no way near the level of doing that..maybe one day!
