About a month ago, on the summit of a peak in the Wasatch, I ran into Zan (friend and touring partner of Gramps). I got some nice footage of him skiing a certain couloir top to bottom, with effortless grace. So I'm posting it here for him, and you to enjoy.
Poor guy moved to Georgia recently to persue work in the Biodiesel industry. I'm sure he'll be back soon enough.
Enjoy Zan. Vid is 1 minute and 3.7mb.

tell him to move to boulder, at least then he can ski. (Blue Sun Biodiesel is there)

who cares about the turns!
I was impressed with the super sweet couloir! FKNA you guys rock that shit!
I have skied one run that steep, that clean, and that fresh in my life, and it seems like thats all you all do! Nice fuking work
I could just imagine the grin on Zan face when he dropped in! I would be so fucking pumped/stoked!Points on their own sitting way up high
