Opis: WARNING: This video contains footage of projectile vomiting! Only 4 days after skiing Kings Peak I headed out to Grand Teton National Park to ski the Skillet Line on Mount Moran. I’ve been looking at skiing Mount Moran ever since I climbed the CMC route 2 summers ago. Unfortunately I couldn’t get anyone else to go. Aaron had used his get out of home free card on Kings Peak, Christof still has a hip being held together with pins and screws, and Chase coaches a highly competitive 6 year old soccer team. The route for Skillet starts at the Leigh Lake trail head, and wraps around Leigh Lake until you’re directly under the Skillet Glacier. Then it’s straight up 5,000ft to the summit of Mount Moran. All said it’s a 16 mile round trip with somewhere around 6,000ft of climbing. I’ve never thrown up skiing before. Not sure if I was overheated, ate some tainted food, or caught whatever stomach churning bug is currently raging at my kids elementary school. Whatever it was knocked me down like a right hook from Tyson.
