Go Higher Contest Winners: Week 2

We launched the Go Higher contest two weeks ago and we've been blown away by the caliber of the stories, photos, and videos that have been uploaded to the TGR Community. This week, the winning entries ranged from Arctic touring adventures to bikini-clad multisport days and we're pumped to award these Community members with a pair of tickets to a Higher film tour stop and the chance to win the Grand Prize. Check out last week's submissions, get inspired to reach a higher state, and then enter for your chance to win!

Going Higher: wasatchpowderhuffer

Going Higher: Ridgetop Productions

Inspired by Jeremy Jones' Deeper, Ridgetop Productions is taking on the summits in southwestern Montana and going Higher. This video takes us up the summit, snowboarding down and a snowmobile ride around the backcountry.  

Going Higher: Magicsnowboard

"As we approached the “summit”, I passed the old starting house. I could picture the first U.S. open competitors lining up for a slalom race. I chuckled to myself as I recalled reading about competitors hiking up the hill. Snowboarders weren't allowed on the lift. Here I was almost 30 years later splitboarding up. Not because I wasn't allowed to ride the local chairlifts, because I no longer wanted to."
