Lou Dawson is a ski mountaineer, founder of WildSnow.com, and the first person to ski down all 54 of Colorado’s 14ers. We discuss all of the above; the history and current state of backcountry skiing; and his new guidebook, Light Tours of Colorado: Mellow Backcountry Ski Routes to Minimize Avalanche Exposure, published by Beacon Guidebooks.
(We had Beacon Guidebooks founder, Andy Sovick, on episode #152 of the Blister Podcast, “On Guidebooks & Decision Making in the Backcountry”. Check it out.)
