Summer skiing couloir in Ouray, Colorado
Summer skiing couloir in Ouray, Colorado

Peep this June skiing clip from Ouray, Colorado of Owen Leeper making his way down a sketchy couloir thats “definitely still a no fall zone” with “gnarly cliffs below that first pitch.” Cheers to Owen for getting sweet lines well into June and to all the diehards out there who are willing to work to get lines in the summer months:

“Nice little couloir right from the road! Main line was melted, but a small traverse and it went through. Good snow top to bottom, gotta love driving to 12k feet and skiing right back to the car.” -Owen Leeper
