Micah Black- A leap of faith into the most pivotal era in Freeskiing

Micah Black has never been a timid persona and today he shares what it was like to Show Up for some of the most pivotal era of modern skiing.  If you love skiing, it's hard to sometimes not be nostalgic for a time when a day pass didn’t cost two hundred dollars and ski towns weren’t some of the most expensive places in the country to live. I think now and then most of us imagine what it would have been like to live in Jackson in the 90’s or to be skiing when fat skis were radically new tech and the world of freeride skiing was just being created.  Micah Black and I go through his story from riding on his dad’s shoulders as he skied to riding with the Jackson Hole Airforce. He was there when extreme skiing wasn’t the dialed-in, polished sport it is today and rode that wave into the pages of Powder Magazine and into Teton Gravity Research segments.  We also talk about the price he paid to make that life possible, about the toll that takes not only on your body but on your mind. We discuss what the years of taking risks do to you and how you come back from that.  Here is one of Micah’s most legendary lines in the Jackson Hole backcountry.  https://youtu.be/dYnWvetmy6g?si=H-ydObP-jypY4Pauhttps://youtu.be/dYnWvetmy6g?si=H-ydObP-jypY4Pau [https://youtu.be/dYnWvetmy6g?si=H-ydObP-jypY4Pau] Thank you so much for listening!

Ep. 24 - One Crazy Idea and 2000 miles Later - Casey and Ryan Higginbotham

What’s more is that they didn’t have a big corporate sponsor or even a crowdfunding page. A few companies helped them out, but it was a trip planned and funded by the brothers for their own reasons. We talk about what those are as well as what their day-job is like, being professional lifeguards. Oh, and we don’t gloss over the less-glamorous details of thousands of miles of self supported adventure. That includes how the brothers got along with each other, what happens when you break a board and what you do when nature calls when you’re sealed up tight in a wetsuit. By the way, I don’t mean having to take a whiz.

Jenna Malone: from ski patroller to healthcare worker on the frontlines of the pandemic

Jenna Malone is a ski patroller, teacher at the American Avalanche Institute, and healthcare worker who recently spent time caring for covid-19 patients in one of New York's hardest hit areas. This interview took place on Instagram Live just a few days after Jenna had returned to her home in Utah and was still in quarantine. She talks about what it was like to be on the frontlines of the pandemic before most of the country had experienced it firsthand, why she volunteered to go there in the first place, and what her daily routine was like while working in the ICU. She also explains why she feels uncomfortable with the outpouring of gratitude that has been directed towards healthcare workers since the start of the pandemic, and shares some of the emotional moments she had with her patients and their families.
