Backcountry skiing is a sport filled with uncertainty, but let’s be honest: that’s exactly what makes it so enticing. Going out into the mountains under your own power keeps you honest, forces you to adapt, and reminds you to embrace the present. In a season filled with an extra level of uncertainty, WNDR Alpine's newest short Impulse celebrates just that, showing us that with the right tools, partners, and knowledge, any day in the mountains is one to remember. Oh yeah, and it’s got some pretty mind-blowing shots of some of our favorite spots here in our backyard.
From WNDR Alpine:
As skiers we rely on our instincts, we meticulously plan, we scrutinize every detail and expect the world of the plans we put in place. Our ability to alter these plans can only be manipulated so much before our impulsive nature overrides our senses and we just go for it. Armed with adequate knowledge, trust in our partners, and comfort with assessing conditions, we converged on the Tetons with Pep, Benny Schmitt, Tyler Miller, Lily Krass and Carson Meyer. What was intended to be colder temps and fresh snow, turned to warming and overcast skies. Instead of tucking tail, we embraced the challenge, accepting our impulsive decision and turning our lemons into lemonade.
