mig

favorite photos of myself from iceland.
can i go back there now?


after 2 full days of grey and overcast skies, the sun finally came out around 6pm on the 3rd day.
everyone was ready to pack it in after a full day of laps, but the
sun rejuvenated all of us, and we skied for another few hours. this was one of the
best moments of my life (also, this photo is not posed). plus i loved those la sportiva skis.


this is the picture that makes me feel like an absolute badass. i'm the one a little bit in the
front farthest away from the camera. on the last full day of touring we had to wade through
the mouth of the river a few times to get to where the zodiac could pick us up. so cool.


i'm the second one coming up the mountain. this was taken on the day
when we skied up from one fjord all the way down to the water in another
fjord. there are very few places in this world where you can ski right
down to the water, so this was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience.


apparently everyone thought this look was hilarious, but it kept me warm, so i didn't care!


heading out of camp on the first day. absolutely loved those
scarpa gea boots that i tested the whole time. the bright green color didn't hurt. :)


this was my get-up for the 5 days in the backcountry. the westcomb jacket and native sunglasses
pretty much never left my body the whole winter and spring in boulder and iceland.
yes, laura, i did semi-retire my old white sunglasses, but i replaced them with this pair,
which you'll notice are still pretty white and pretty large.
