One of the most famous, perhaps the thé most famous, inbound couloirs in the US of A can be found in Jackson Hole. Corbet’s Couloir is marked on the slope map and then you might think ‘it’s on the map, how hard can it be’. Yet a lot of people go tomahawking sown. Corbet’s was first skied in 1967. A great movie of Todd McScraffy and Biff Huckneck!
In 1992, I saw a report about Corbet in the Onboard (magazine) and then figured out I’d like to ski that once. 19 years later, it was time and I could cross Corbet’s (without tomahawks) off of my personal ski bucket list.

was born with maps of ski areas in the cradle and has visited almost all of them. His great passion is freeriding.
