Steep

So addict to watch snow and snow sports. Again, a documentary about mountain skiing and adventure! “If there’s no risk, there’s no adventure.” :)

Bill Briggs was the first person to do that, 35 years ago! From the summit of Jackson, Wyoming, skied 6000ft decent. Wow! it sounds crazy even now.

    cannot be 6000 m la!!! most likely 6000 ft. the avg elevation of the tibetan area is only 4900 m, and even mount everest is 8848 m.

    oh, thx! you’re right! the translation is so hateful. but i don’t understand why US ppl are still using feet instead of meter, and mile instead of km… what’s the age now?

    but in fact, many ppl doing extreme skiing from top of 6-7km height mountains in Alaska :)
