CRESTED BUTTE, Colorado – Some ski runs are steep. Some ski runs are so steep that even the best skiers get a little scared. And then there’s Rambo at Crested Butte, the steepest tree-cut inbound ski run in North America. Most people look at its pitch and the lack of complete coverage and say “no thanks!”, but Drew Petersen looks at the 55° pitch and says “yes please!”
“Yes, Rambo’s claim to fame—the steepest tree-cut inbounds run in North America—may sound like an obscure baseball stat on ESPN when they have nothing else to talk about. Yes, most people look at conditions and coverage like this and think “that’s gonna be a no from me dogg.” Yes, I really do freaking love this flavor of skiing.” – Drew Petersen
Drew hits Rambo every single year, posting it to his Instagram as his “annual Rambo POV”, and it’s never not impressive. He’s also put together a pretty sweet film called Feel It All, covering a mission of mental health through multiple massive goals. Give it a watch.
