Winter in the Woods-Backcountry Skiing in the Sierra Nevada

A short film profiling imagery and music from three winters spent backcountry skiing and snowboarding near Devil's Postpile, California. We were the winter caretakers for Red's Meadow Resort and lived a dream. No work, all play. Skiing in the backcountry for over 120 days a year. A small wooden cabin to live in....paradise. Some good backcountry skiing and snowboarding in here, set to a mellow, introspective, original soundtrack that I recorded with my home studio...

In winter in the woods alone Against the trees I go. I mark a maple for my own And lay the maple low. At four o'clock I shoulder ax, And in the afterglow I link a line of shadowy tracks Across the tinted snow. I see for Nature no defeat In one tree's overthrow Or for myself in my retreat For yet another blow. robert frost
