Just a dad vs I-70

The Weird Foothill Guy (@WFG_DEN) grew up in northern Vermont, Boulder, Vail Valley and Steamboat. Near skiing. After college had a lengthy career in ski area and ski retail marketing then a podcast called Wintry Mix that some of you have enjoyed. 

Not anymore. 

Ensconced in a new career while raising kids in the Denver area, grabbing a few runs midday or before/after work became problematic, at least under the typical definitions of skiing. 

Thanks to the Marquette Backcountry Ski WFG now gets a full season of fresh turns Nov-May without battling I-70 traffic, avalanche terrain or Epic Lift Lines, and never driving very far. 

Perhaps you have similar challenges where you live. Consider joining the team. 

It doesn't need to be far, crowded, risky or costly. We just made it that way.
