Stewart is always keen to take the sharp end of the lead. Nice to have that on a team: kicking steps up couloirs, releasing slabs, ascending cornice filled passes, testing snow bridges on crevasses and endlessly breaking trail. This photo is taken near the 9,200 ft pass on N.E. Mountain after about 6,000 ft of climbing from the valley bottom. We have another 10 km of skiing to go for the day - fortunately most of it is a pleasant descent down a glacier.
