Last year on March 27, a cornice collapsed on Cody Peak, taking with it Jackson local and our friend Bryce Newcomb.
He fell roughly 1,000 feet down a rocky, exposed area between Four Shadows and No Shadows couloirs before coming to a full stop. He sustained a traumatic brain injury and eventually succumbed to those injuries, passing away on June 15, 2018.

The 30-year-old,ย who was a good friend of SnowBrains co-founder and fellow professional skier Miles Clark, grew up in Sun Valley, Idaho, and lived in Jackson for a few years.ย He will always be remembered for living life to its fullest, and making anybody believe that anything is possible.
