Canoe and Kayak Cover!

Current issue of Canoe and Kayak - my dad on the cover! Paddling in the Everglades last December. Really fun to go back to Florida and explore the amazing nature there once you get away from the stripmalls and disneylands... In this issue of C&K I also have a full spread ad from NRS and a full spread image in the gallery. Stoked. Thanks to Canoe and Kayak for the love!

Women's Adventure Magazine Cover

Women's Adventure Magazine cover, spring '12. Krissy cruising in the Tetons - thanks Krissy and the editors at Women's Adventure. 

Ridge Cruising - Backcountry.com Ad

Shireen walking the line near the swiss-italian border last season. We climed this peak in a total white out just to have the clouds break just enough to sneak in some light and get a few incredible views, and a feel for the exposure.  Photogs dream - super dramatic. Maybe one of our highlights of last season. I have a few more images that I really like from this ridge, hopefully they will trickle out as well. 

Patagonia Ad

Patagonia ad in the current issue of Trail Runner Magazine. This was off-the-wall place in eastern Utah on an evening run where the light almost went crazy, but it turned out pretty good still. Thanks to Krissy for making in happen and the ladies at the Patagonia photo dept for selecting the shot. Psyched. 

Climbing Mag - Black Canyon

Check out the current issue of Climbing Magazine - photo of Mr Joe Mills on the table of contents page during his send of Hallucingen Wall (5.13- R, 16 pitches, 2nd free ascent) in the Black Canyon. Joe recieved a well-deserved runner up in Climbing Magazines Golden Piton awards. Here are a few more photos from that climb to add some more color

Early Morning light warming up the cold canyon - on my way rapping in to shoot Joe and Dave Vuono's attempt to free the Hallucinogen wall. 

Joe and Dave stoked to have climbed through the shady, cold and run-out lower pitches and into the sun. 

Joe keeping it together and working his way up a shallow and flaring seam - with scary, manky old bashies as pro... 

After the cactus traverse, sinking the only jams of the whole route, in on of the very few moderate sections of climbing - just before one the crux 5.13 pitches leading up the bivy under the huge roof. 

Dave and Joe on the bivy waiting for sunshine and warmth - taking in the incredible canyon and the roar of the gunnison below. Also got to spectate a party getting forced into an unplanned bivy on a route on the south wall - just across the canyon, but still so far away... 

Relief; topping out after the loose final pitches. 
Taking in the beauty of the north rim of the canyon before heading home. Nice work Joe and Dave - thanks to Climbing Mag for running one of the images (hopefully more of the A-roll images will trickle out), and thanks to Ibex for supporting Joe. 

 

Patagonia Website

couple of trail running photos up on the Patagonia website:

Krissy and Chris storming Garnett Canyon (love the caption writers at Patagonia!). 

Krissy in the San Juans. Thanks Chris and Krissy for a couple of awesome days in the San Juans and Tetons this past summer!

 

Telemark Skier Photo Issue!

Check out the new Photo Issue from Telemark Skier - got two images in there with Jake Sakson from RMR and Rogers Pass. Thanks Jake!

Happy 2012 - Trail Runner Calendar

Happy New 2012! Just got the new issue of Trail Runner Magazine with the 2012 Wall Calendar - not one, but 3 images out of the 12 months - stoked. Thanks to Shireen, Karissa, and Krissy and Chris for being Februay, May and December. Thanks and Happy New Year! Let's hope it brings more snow the end of 2011. 

LaSportiva Ad

Recent LaSportiva Hi5 ad featuring Michael Cody climbing a couloir in Colorado last spring - sporty, firm conditions - we were wishing we had not left the ice axes in the car... If you're in the market for a super light, stable, large early-rise shovel/flat tail backcountry board, check out the Hi5 - it's a sweet stick. For some other recently published stuff, check out the December issue of Skiing magazine. Time to ski. 

Brant Cover!

November cover for the Swedish Adventure and Ski magazine Brant (means Steep); Skylar Memsic soaring near east Vail last season. Super psyched to get this cover, thanks to John and the fine folks at Brant for selecting the photo and Skylar for being a bad ass. Cruise over to Brant's fb site and hit like for me. Thanks.
