Chamonixoxo: A Tribute to Liz Daley

by Lucy Higgins April 7, 2015 4 Comments

In February 2014, photographer Kt Miller and professional skier Caroline Gleich met up with late snowboarder Liz Daley for two weeks of steep skiing in Chamonix. The trio accomplished famous and technical descents like the Y Couloir of Aiguille de Argentiere and the West Couloir of Aiguille du Chardonnet, polishing their ski mountaineering skills and surprising more than a few with their technical proficiency. As a tribute to Daley, who passed away in an avalanche in late September, Kt Miller showcases their time in the French Alps.

when is a spade a spade? Is this really “a tribute to Daley”??? there were only a handful of stills and 30 seconds of video out of 5 minutes that were Liz.

: ERIC BLEHM: MEET YOUR HEROES
Eric Blehm’s roots in snowboarding run deep. He started riding during the sport’s infancy, and after college became an editor at Transworld SNOWboarding Magazine. Years later, he was in a lift line when a fellow rider saw the “Craig Kelly is my Co-Pilot” sticker on his board, and asked Blehm: “Who is Craig Kelly?” He was floored by the notion that there were snowboarders out there who didn’t know who Craig was. And this inspired him to write The Darkest White.
