SnowBrains 2021/22 Season Highlight Video | 233K-Vertical-Feet Ascended, 181 Ski Days, 3 Continents, 10 Locations 2021/22 was a rough season for me. I discovered I had now cartilage nor meniscus left in the lateral compartment of my left knee. I was basically on one leg all season. I got some PRP injections, took a month off, skied less, trained harder, and learned to work with pain. I was still able to ski 181 days in […] Featured Video Liam Abbott | September 25, 2023 0 Comments
Patagonia Backcountry Report: Riding a Mini-Avalanche & a Mini-Car on the Last “Powder” Day of the Season Report from September 23, 2023 Yesterday, we went for a walk with low expectations.

Patagonia Backcountry Report: Dropping The “Ridgewalker” Pillows & Hucking “The Grifter” Cliff in Deep Powder Snow Report from September 11, 2023 On Monday, we sauntered out into the backcountry for the afternoon.

Bariloche, Argentina Report: Are Spread Eagles in Tight Trees A Good Idea? Report from September 11, 2023 On Sunday, the snow in Bariloche, Argentina was hot, crusty, and bad. Everywhere.

That night, I kept my eye […] Conditions Report Miles Clark | September 13, 2023 0 Comments

We […] Conditions Report Miles Clark | September 6, 2023 0 Comments
