There’s Something in the Snow at Mount Baker
Will Hutchinson, 21, is peering over the edge of a cliff that looks like a diving board, trying to spot his landing. The conditions at Mount Baker Ski Area are so soupy he can hardly see through the fog, but he doesn’t let the poor visibility deter him—these powdery, stormy conditions are what he knows best.
“You’re good!” says Hutchinson’s childhood friend, Mattias Evangelista, and a round of high fives greet him from the childhood friends he has skied with since he was in his dad’s backpack.
