Sorry I have been slacking on my posts from the last few days. I just got some terrible news that Ryan Hawks has passed away from injuries sustained during the North American Freeskiing Championships at Kirkwood on Sunday Feb. 27th, 2011. I am having a hard time typing so I will keep it short.
This video is from the powder day before Ryan was injured. We had gotten about 30 inches a snow and the mountain was skiing great. MSI had decided to hold off on the comp until Sunday to give the snow a chance to settle and to give the patrol time to work on controlling the Cirque.
Please check out my next post for more info on the event and on Ryan. Thanks.
