Shredding New Hampshire’s Presidential Range Deep Into The Spring

Ski The East is in its second season filming for its series "Working For the Weekend" series following longtime Meathead Films veteran Ben Leoni. Ben calls Portland Maine his home where he 9-5's as an Attorney but gets out on the weekends to shred some of New Englands gnarliest backcountry. From deep pow to spring corn snow, to technical eastern ice, been and his crew get out to sample it all, without the aid of lifts of course.

Most known for Tuckerman Ravine, the Presidential Range in New Hampshire showcases some of the best glacial cirques On the East Coast and come spring time it's open season to ski these steeps. Ben and his crew skinned up to Huntington Ravine, which sits just north of Tuckerman Ravine and is more known for its ice climbing and technical ski mountaineering. Ben and his crew along with Carter Snow continued their spring touring around and shredding the presidential range finding unique lines and pristine corn spring snow. Ben along with Louise Lintilhac ended their season with a mission to the northern most ravine in the Presidential Range as late as Mothers Day, May 11. The crew found an abundance of soft hero snow to rip big GS style turns to leave them well recharged for the start of a new work week.
