Why We Ski

03/06/13

Why do you ski?  Inspired by this video shared from onthesnow.com

we decided to ask people who ski Brundage, what draws them to the slopes.   Here are a few of those answers.

 

1

Micheal- “The people.  The local ski community takes skiing from an activity to something much more”.

2

Margaret- “It is fun! Clean lines and fresh tracks”.

3

Roger- “Freedom of skiing “Raven” snow through the trees”.

4

Chuck-  “Exercise.  I have lived here for 21 years and it is the only reason to live in the mountains through the Winter”.

5

Dan and Glenn-  “The mountains and the freedom.  It is just you and your snowboard.  Never Summer!”

6

Scott-  “It is a primal instinct to conquer the mountain.”

7

Mark-  “First time skiing in Idaho.  It is just fun”.

8

Pete-  “It is why we live here just to enjoy being on the mountain”.

9

John-  “The speed and the wind rushing by.  Skiing faster than you probably should be and the risk of it”.

10

Steve-  “The adventure in the trees.  It is a great environment and is absolutely beautiful”.

Me- “There is nothing better than the ultimate freedom that the mountain allows.  Pure bliss!”

Why do you ski?  We invite you to ponder and reply.
