On the making of Roadless…
Looking back I feel very fortunate that it all came together… You can dream, make plans and carve out dates for a trip like this, but the weather can easily shut you down. It’s such an honor to connect and spend time with Jeremy and Travis in the mountains, I’ve had the most amazing days of my life riding with those guys and this was no exception. We had sunshine, good snow and a bright full moon… it was a very special window. We set out with no lofty goals or exact route allowing us a chance to enjoy the excitement of discovery and figure things out along the way. We covered a lot of ground wandering the wilderness, it was a unique experience, days spent ascending and descending, setting up and breaking down camp, studying lines in the moonlight, welcoming the sunrise and following it’s light down valleys until the last line was lost in the shadows as the sun sank in the west. In the end we found some good riding and had quality time for conversation and reflection… I feel like it’s pretty rare when your imagination and reality lines up so clearly.
It was a great experience working with Travis, Jeremy and the TGR family, they made it possible to bring this project to life. The production team was next level, J.K., Dutch Simpson, Ben Dann, Jon Desabris, Ming Poon (photo) & Clark Henarie (camp manager / guide / snowboard mountaineering god). These guys are BADASS hardworking visionaries. It was great getting to spend time with them in the mountains, much respect and endless gratitude.
