Dispatch 4: Pictures Worth A Thousand Words

Folks, nothing is worse than overstating facts and long prose. Please review the photo and know that we have chased the good snow away from Mustang and over onto a one peak powder skiing objective. 20,200’ Thorung Peak is covered in stable and amazing conditions, we will climb and ski it tomorrow.

I want to thank my friends, my sponsors and those of you out there rooting us on and for inspiring me to never waver in my commitment to skiing the Himalayas. Six months after breaking my ankle on 23,390’ Baruntse I took my first ski turns of the season (attached photo), in deep powder at 19,000’ yesterday and shared it with my greatest friends. I know now why we couldn’t make it to Mustang, the snow is better here!

Live the dream, never doubt the possibility of true adventure. More dispatches to come.
