- Chedi 174 & 184 BMF/R
Michael is the Insurance Guy of Aspen. 25 years on Tele's, never going back. Tele keeps me young! Hitting 65 this year. I prefer steep trees and deep POW. Grateful and thrilled to find a true step-in solution for my gear.
You can find me on the Deep Temerity chair or hot laps at Tiehack. Let trade skis and have a few runs. Forget, tele til you're smelly, tele til you're dead. :)

Jean-Pierre
Best days to ski with J-P: ...
Jean-Pierre is a frost bitten transplant French Canadian refugee who crawled West from the ice coasted wilds of the Northern Maine woods. He skis in the sun while hiding from the clouds and their windy shadows. J-P infuses park-lap-snowboarding, a skate and destroy attitude, seasoned with an undying thirst for life lived in the present, forming a telemark style unique in its own right.
Shred ready at all times, you can find him enchanting Buddha blessings in appeasement to the snow gods along the high reaches of the New Mexico Rockies.
