Featured Athlete: Patrick Spence 

 

Name a person who inspires you to be a better skier?

Always have looked up to Candide, he's a legend.

What would you do if you won the lottery?

Probably try to buy a ski resort, and donate a bunch of it to climate change research and funding, I want to keep skiing for a long time and others to enjoy it after me.

Favorite chairlift and why?
The old Summit Chair at Solitude Mountain.  That thing was ricketty, very high up in places, slow, and took you to the best skiing on the mountain.
 
Breakfast of champions?

6-7 pieces of bacon and a few eggs, some caffeine for sure.

Favorite classic ski film and why?

Year Book by MSP came out in 2004, the first ski movie I owned.  Definitely fueled the fire to move out west and become a backcountry skier.
