As a career outdoors industry professional raised by ski patrollers, Chris' life path has been shaped around the mountains.  Hailing from Washington DC, Chris prefers being among the trees and mountains in the Pacific Northwest where he attended university.  After years travelling around the world, he has returned and settled in Washington State where he is proud to call Mount St. Helens his backyard mountain. Chris can be found exploring the mountain in boots, crampons, splitboard or skis throughout the year and is excited to share the natural and historical wonders of the landscape with everyone!
