Owen Leeper

I started skiing when I was 4 in Aspen. After competing in half-pipe and slopestyle events though college at the University of Colorado, I moved back to Aspen and began focusing on big mountain skiing. Jackson became my new home in 2013, and I was immediately able to really push my skills in big mountain terrain. After the lifts close for the season, I take my skis and head towards the bigger peaks and couloirs throughout the west. I've skied almost all of the peaks in the Tetons including the Grand, Middle and South Teton. Every year my goal is to ski as early as October and well into July.
