The first Gathering was also the first time I met Marko Shapiro.
They being the Cambin Crew: Marko, Ace Kvale, John Falkner and a collection of their friends.
And now we know why we come to Red.
We come to be inspired by like minded people of all ages who share a similar passion for skiing.
And we come to ski.
In short, the Gathering is two nights of photo and multimedia presentations, and several days of skiing.
But it’s also much more.
So were veterans such as Dave Heath, Steve Ogle and Derek Frankowski.
I met new friends, but at the events and in huts stashed in the woods.
Once again I left Rossland and the Gathering promising to be back next year.
One addition already in the works is a three-day photo workshop with Shapiro himself.
In the meantime Red Resort is open until April 3, and the skiing is still going off.
