Winter Telemark Skiing Photos: A Few To Keep the Winter Stoke Going

Well, I was really hoping to get another telemark video posted this week, but we decided to give it one more session in the editing room. It should be done and posted in two weeks - we are off to telemark some backcountry spots in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado and do some long trail running and secret bouldering in Northern New Mexico.

However, to keep the stoke of the telemark season going just a little longer, here are a few photos of winter fun.

Sure wish it would dump like it was this day. This winter has been warm and dry for the most part, although we have had some good telemark powder days.
