The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem of the Rocky Mountains spans twenty-two million acres across Southwest Montana, Northwest Wyoming, and Eastern Idaho. The region’s climate undergoes a grand transformation in winter. The vibrant colors and abundant life of the warmer months give way to a stark landscape dominated by snow-covered terrain and harsh weather. 

Winter exploration on alpine touring skis in the Greater Yellowstone has shaped two distinct and opposing experiences - the intimate and the vast. I'm both towered over by the landscape’s enormity and intimately connected to my partners. Seeking a balance between camaraderie with people and a sense of insignificance in the face of nature’s grandeur embodies the sublime. 

As The Shadows Move Across uses the sublime experience to show the perception of self and surroundings.
