“My connection to the mountains is a relationship—year-round, spiritual, intimate, and as I hope, reciprocal.” –Drew Petersen
Big mountain skier and professional athlete Drew Petersen has been skiing since he could walk. Throughout his life, the mountains have been his single greatest mentor. Follow along with Drew as he skis a few lines and runs some trails and learn more about his connection with Utah’s mountains and beyond:
“It’s fitting that we got to film this video in the Wasatch, where I called home (a little bit off-an-on) for the past nine years. And perhaps my favorite part of the video, is that we explore my year-round connection between skiing and running. The peaks I ran along the WURL taught me where to ski off the same ridgeline.”
Drew has been through a lot in the last few years and we appreciate his openness about his struggles both physically and mentally. Make sure to read this Instagram post and follow him HERE.
