Perfecting the BLT

Lexi Dowdall 

Lexi Dowdall spent her youth skiing unsupervised at Snowbird, UT, while her dad worked in the resort’s emergency medical clinic. She spent seven winters as the Director of Freeride for the IFSA, facilitating competitive freeride events across the globe. Lexi taught herself how to watercolor paint during a global pandemic and went on to dabble in film production for Ski Utah and Sweetgrass Productions. Lexi still paints and now works as the Communications Manager for Alta Ski Area. Find her work at www.kapowder.com and follow her @kapowder.


Alex Hunt 

Originally from Denver, CO, Alex Hunt has always been a skier. Throughout his 20s and early 30s he avoided summer by guiding and patrolling in Silverton, CO, then chasing winter south to Argentina. Guiding led him to Alaska where he dodged rotor blades and wrangled clients as a heli-ski guide, and after hanging up his guide pack, he worked as an outdoor industry marketer. He now calls Salt Lake City, UT, home and spends his days skiing with friends, perfecting the BLT sandwich, and looking after his two young daughters.


Amy Jimmerson 

Amy Jimmerson is a Montana girl who has spent the better part of the last two decades in Jackson, WY. She got her start in ski photography shooting freeride competitions across the mountain west and now spends her days chasing powder shots in the Tetons, guiding flyfishers, or hanging out with her camera in a herd of bison. Her work can be found on Instagram @amyjimmerson.


Kellen MacDonald

After an early career in architecture, Kellen MacDonald started Above Productions in 2020 to showcase his passion for photography and filmmaking. Based in Richmond, VA, he has been working with brands and professional athletes since then, offering custom work and documentary-style marketing visuals. For the past few years, he has traveled alongside Eileen Gu and Nick Goepper as they trained and competed in freeski contests.

 

Adrian Walther

Growing up at the foot of Burke Mountain, VT, Adrian Walther spent his youth voraciously reading and writing stories or exploring the wilderness that surrounded him. Very little has changed in the years since. He keeps his ski and bike quivers well stocked by teaching those passions at a local high school. Squeezing every drop of adventure out of the nearby Green Mountains remains his paramount pursuit.
