Behind The Line – Caite Zeliff Vs. The Cave Air
Popular Stories
The Jackson Hole backcountry is filled with a bucket list of classic mega-airs, and it’s turned into a rite of passage for any young ski talent to start checking them off. For North Face athlete Caite Zeliff, the season spent filming for Make Believe was full of days dedicated to working through that list. One air, in particular, stood out though – the infamous Cave Air, which had seen some of the masters of the sport put tracks down it. With inspiration from the likes of Sam Smoothy, Lynsey Dyer, Rachael Burks, Sage Cattabriga-Alosa, and many more, Caite found it deep within herself to point it over the edge.
