I Live For Winter Video Series

I just finished the “I love for Winter” series which highlighted different departments around the mountain and what their employees do in the summer.
This was a concept I originally came up with last year. I think it’s a fun way to build excitement for the up coming winter season and show the great personalities that work at Heavenly.

This Avalanche Dog “Digs” You

This is some video of my my friend Brendan Mcgraw and his Golden Retriever Coomba. I have had the pleasure of knowing Coomba since he was 6 weeks old, he is a funny little guy with a huge personality. Coomba is a ski patrol avalanche dog in training. This video was shot at the end of Coomba’s first season on the mountain, taken shortly before Coomba’s 1st birthday. So as you can see, he is pretty much going to be a bad ass. Coomba and Brendan have been training for their upcoming test, which if they pass Coomba will officially be a Ski Patrol rescue dog, and earn his cross.

More Powder Hits Tahoe

We received 8″ of snow over night, a perfect excuse to get out and shoot some video. The mountain was shocked in with clouds, so it was a tough day on the lighting side of things. I went out with Eric Burkholm from the Heavenly Ski Patrol. The good thing about rolling with Eric is he always knows where to get the fresh untracked snow. We dropped off the ridge in Mott Canyon and skied “Sharkeys” into Killebrew Canyon. This was my first time playing with the new head cam, which captured some awesome shots. Check out what you missed from yesterday.
