2 amazing skier's and riders in the past 2-3 years. Craig Kelly, an amazing snowboarder was killed in a slide in 04. He was an amazing person, always in the Backcountry pushing the sport further and further every time he rode. When his life was taken in a slide the whole snowboarding community was shocked, and in disbelief, and also very sad to see such a person live the sport. Even though i snowboard, i still know who Doug Coombs was, and what a wonderful person he was. An amazing skier, always pushing the limits of what was ridable/skiable as far as steepness goes. He will be missed for years to come.
R.I.P Doug Coombs, the skiing and riding communities will miss you
