    #10 Angel Collinson

    My guest today is a total badass. She is most commonly known for her extreme skiing exploits in the mountains of Alaska, but to call her a skier would be like calling the earth a rock. Angel Collinson is a life ninja. A true force with the desire to rewrite the rules of life and the passion to see it through. Her vision for picking out ski lines is far outmatched by her vision for life. We talked about meditation, life, death, fear, mental health, climate and of course skiing. Honestly, this conversation could have continued for hours, and I look forward to my next conversation with Angel. Please welcome, today's Ace, Angel Collinson.

    #9 Jay Dash

    Jay is highly accomplished ski and outdoor photographer who left a career in finance to spend more time in the outdoors. We had a good chat about how he made the jump from the corporate world to the outdoors and things he learned along the way. He's an inspiration to me as a photographer, but also for the dedication he has for pursuing a life that makes him happy.

    #7 Creighton Baird

    My guest today is Creighton Baird. Creighton is a fascinating guy. I met Creighton several years ago in the Tetons and immediately realized that he has an enormous zest for life. He's a climber, skier, hunter, sky diver and for the majority of his 20s he spent a lot of his time rigging backcountry rope swings in the Utah desert. Creighton showed up with a bottle of scotch and a head full of stories and we went down the rabbit hole of life, risk, adventure and Creighton's own personal decision to dial things back in the hopes of starting a family. It was a great conversation. It was long and rich and I hope you enjoy it. Please welcome to the show, today's Ace, Creighton Baird.    Thank you so much for listening to this episode of the podcast. I was a long one but a good one. I really hope you enjoyed it. To learn more about Creighton you can follow him @creightonbaird on Instagram

    #4 Rachael Burks

    My guest today has a true sense of adventure, and true to form, we asked her this morning to join us and she said "I'll see you at 4pm." Her name is Rachael Burks. Racheal is a professional skier who competed for several years as a free skier on the freeride world tour. She's skied all over the world and in the process found happiness in her life as a skier rather than chasing a life of money and material possessions. I gotta tell you. After the conversation, I have a crazy amount of respect for Rachael. She's not only a skier. She's open to pretty much anything that might bring her happiness. She says yes a lot and truly lives life to the fullest. She is also a very inspiring person who works to help young kids find a life in skiing and she's an advocate for women in the outdoors and especially in the sport of freeride skiing. Please welcome to the podcast, today's Ace, Rachael Burks.  Thanks so much for joining in for this episode of the podcast.

    #1 Jason Cohen

    My guest today is Jason Cohen. Jason is an incredibly difficult person to summarize in a few sentences. He's a photographer, cinematographer, cyclist, runner, father and a fascinating human with an extraordinary amount of self determination and drive. A few years ago, Jason looked down and the scale and saw that he weight 297 lbs. In that moment he promised himself that it would never go to 300 and he began taking control of his life. Seven years later Jason toed the line of the Leadville Trail 100 and 29 hours and 25 minutes later, he had run 100 miles through the mountains of Colorado at the weight of 175 lbs. He's a great friend of mine. He's what I would consider an Ace and he's the person who convinced me to start this podcast so it's only fitting that he jump in with me as my partner and producer. Please welcome to the podcast, today's Ace, Jason Cohen.    Thanks for listening to the podcast. I really hope you enjoyed it.
