Click on the images to see 'em bigger.  It'll be great.
(yeah, I know they're all photos of me, but try to look beyond that)

Mt. Hutt in Canterbury
I was making freshies in the Southland pow-pow, but I stopped long enough to allow unsuspecting
passers by to snap photos of me with my camera.



"Ok, everyone.  The chopper is safe if the blades aren't moving. Oh, and I like to look fat."


A Modern Heli Skier
Too cool for his own good...
But he's smart enough to wear a beacon.

Awesome views and RAD vertical.  Time to shred the gnar....  Now, where are my skis?


Some more pics from my terrible job in NZ:

 
But it hurts!
Smiling while struggling to climb out of a crevasse 
on the upper Fox Glacier.  Unlike the first time I
encountered a crevasse in Alaska, I volutarily
lowered myself into this one.
Hold my beer and watch this!
The honest to goodness REAL me... 
A mud-loving, Redneck Quad Biker who
would rather tear up the precious 
landscape than poach freshies in the
pristine backcountry.....  Yeah. Riiiiight.
