Sleddin Faves

Figured I should post some of my favorite sleddin pics before all the snow melts. The first 3 shots were taken on the annual Polaris Photo shoot for the model year 2012 sleds. While the big dogs were performing, I was able to bring my camera and take advantage of the talent at hand. Todd Williams was kind enough to allow me to shoot along side of him, It's always a treat to learn from such a master.
The last two pics, are from the 2011 Jackson Hole Hill Climb. With my injured shoulder, I may be done riding for the year.......we shall see.

Canyonlands 2011

Had a nice escape from the snow last weekend when we took the kids down to Southern Utah, it was still a little cold, and we had to endure some wind, but at least it was dry. Here are a few pics.

Jackson Hole Hill Climb 2011

Last week end I was able to attend the 2011 World Championship Hill Climb Race in Jackson Hole Wyoming. Todd Williams, who is a phenomenal photographer based out of New York, helped me get a media pass so I could shoot the race with him. It was an awesome experience to say the least. We got assignments from Polaris, HMK, Holz, & OSM magazine, to shoot specific riders. Since the event, the Montana Tibune has used some of my images. Boondockers and some sponsered Ski-Doo racers have expressed interest to Todd about using some of our stuff. Kind of cool!! Here are a few of my favorites.


Even though it's an Arctic Cat, this is one of my favorites.

Keith Curtis won King in 2 classes and won King of Kings to take top honors at the event.
I rode with Keith on on the Polaris photo shoot this year, he is not only an amazing rider, but a super nice guy.
