Quote of the day.
"You must feel the tug of your muscles as you near the top of a long grade, and know the joy of making your own track down an unbroken expanse of powder snow. This is skiing. This is adventure!"
Jackrabbit Johannsen, circa 1946.

Herman was a seriously awesome guy. A personal hero.
Cross-country AND down-hill skiing in the backcountry.
Unashamed to be a "cross-country type" and love skiing down-hill.
