Happy Trails to Hillary



It is with a sad heart we say goodbye to one of our favorite backcountry partners, Hillary Prugh, who is leaving Alaska this Saturday night for Bozeman, Montana to begin her career as a real-live lawyer.

Our first backcountry excursions this season to Hatcher's Pass were with Hillary and Andrea and I took the Avy. 1 class earlier this winter with her. In such a short time, we packed in alot of great memories.

I can honestly say Hillary is one of the best alpine skiers I have ever seen strap on tele gear. And when she finally got her skins cut (last week) on her AT boards, she ripped. Above is a picture of Andrea, Hillary and uh, me, at Hatcher pass in mid-November.

Hillary, we will miss turning with you the rest of this season and we are looking forward to one more sub-zero mission to Turnagain this weekend! Keep your smile big and we will visit in Montana soon!
