M-T-N Story Time / August 10, 2020 by kevin hjertaas

Humans learn best from stories. With that in mind, here’s the start of the “M-T-N Story Time” series, meant to entertain and highlight a few things we can all learn from.

Let’s begin with a day when everything went well…

Pre-Season Aemmer Couloir. What it's REALLY like to ski before you should. / September 28, 2016 by kevin hjertaas

A fairly honest look at what it's like to "Ski" lines early or even pre season.

Nov. 11, 2010 there was about as much snow as some early Octobers but Martin Lefebvre and I headed up the Aemmer Couloir on Mt. Temple anyway. Here's the story from Biglines.com

Mt Clemenceau Descent, full article / September 15, 2016 by kevin hjertaas

By Martin Lefebvre for the Canadian Alpine Journal 2013

It was around May 15, 2012 when I limped back into the snow safety office at Sunshine Village and had a chance to catch up with Kevin. After a quick hey hows it going, the next words out of my mouth were, “if you ever wanna go to Clemenceau, I'm in!” Without even blinking Kevin said “lets do it!” He immediately hopped on the computer and started looking at weather and flight costs. My jaw dropped and my knee started to swell up upon hearing his response. “Umm... I was thinking more about next year” But it was already too late to turn back. After hearing of the amazing solo descent of the North Face of Bryce we felt like there was a bit of mad rush for the classic un-skied faces of the Rockies. The North Face of Clemenceau had been on Kevin and Eric's wish list for a few years. It was a fat snowpack year in the Rockies, things were getting done and Kevin didn't want to get scooped on this one!
