RIP Warren Miller

[JimG.]

One favorite scene..dramatic music playing..people and a poor dog sliding all over the place. He says people drive for hundreds of miles to ski frozen granular..I then noticed its at Hunter.

The dog's name was Rocky, he was my buddy Alan's dog. He was as old as the hills and had bad hips which made walking on snow an adventure. At least the dog had a reason to be falling down.

That clip is timeless. RIP Warren.

not to sound overly sappy but i AM a better skier because of him. passion to ski more = became a better skier.

"I didn't ever make anyone ski better. I made them want to ski more. That's enough."
