Field Notes
Observations, experiments, and lessons learned through skiing — recorded over time, tested on snow, and shared without polish or pretense.
Some ideas only surface when you spend enough days on snow. These notes document those moments — when something works, doesn’t work, or simply asks a better question than it answers.
How to Use These Notes
Field Notes aren’t meant to be read in order. Each entry stands on its own. Some are technical. Some are reflective. Others are simply things noticed along the way.
Read what catches your attention, leave the rest for later.
There’s no curriculum here — just accumulated experience.

Where This Leads
Field Notes often raise questions rather than answer them. If you’re looking for clearer starting points or structured learning, these pages may help.
