New Years Skate

This New Years the skeleton crew made the annual pilgrimage to Tahoe to enjoy the wilderness.  We brought skates and s'mores and instead of skis, beacons, shovels and probes.  It was easy to see that skiing is not the only reason we choose to slide into sleeping bags and spend the new year under the stars.  The sky was blue, the sun was out and the ice was as good as it gets.  Happy New Year!

And a short video for your viewing pleasure....

Nepal

Right before the New Year I was sent to Nepal for work.  Like Siberia, it was an amazing trip with amazing people and I feel truly lucky to be at a place in my career when I get these calls.  I don't take it for granted and had to pinch myself on this one.  A few pics that try to capture the mood of that magical country.
