GUA- S2E12- Mike Marolt - Work And Passion

from Growing Up Aspen - A Joiners Table Chat

Mike Marolt talks about life between work and passion. Mike Marolt (Aspen High Grad 83/ A leader in ski descents above 7,000 meters) (20 min) Music by Felix Plante. Produced by Twist and Turn Press. Book: Twist and Turn Press https://www.twistandturnpress.com/ T-Shirts: Threadless https://www.threadless.com/@AndyCollen Happy Trails Animation https://www.happytrailsanimation.com/ Mike Marolt by: U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame https://skihall.com/hall-of-famers/michael-steve-marolt/ By staying true to himself and finding peace at 26,000 feet, this Aspenite has became one of the country’s most accomplished ski mountaineers. The climbing exploits of Mike Marolt place him in an elite fraternity of the world’s most accomplished mountaineers. Adhering to an old-school “pure style” – without the aids of supplemental oxygen, altitude drugs and porters – pushes these achievements to an even loftier level. The fact that he culminates these climbs by descending on skis from the world’s highest peaks – while battling hypoxia, avalanche danger, obscenely dangerous terrain, minus-20 degree cold and vertigo-inducing whiteouts – places them in the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame.
