Kristoffer Erickson
Erickson has accomplished great mountaineering feats around the world, as both a climber and a skier. He represents a rare breed of alpinist, combining his abilities to ascend difficult mountains with his love and passion for a true sliding descent. His traditional style and ethics in climbing blend with a romance for finding projects in the last frontiers of exploration around the world.
A native Montanan, Erickson proudly calls Bozeman his home. He has teamed up with worthy partners to compile a comprehensive list of first ascents on some of Montana's hardest mixed ice climbs. He has made difficult premiere ski mountaineering descents in Montana, Wyoming and Alaska and has compiled a lengthy list of difficult descents throughout North America. Many of these ski descents were, at one point in history, considered classic alpine climbs. Erickson has been only sporadically noticed for his achievements as an athlete because he's usually the one taking the photographs. With his camera in hand, he has documented adventures around the world in editorial and commercial publications throughout the outdoor industry. Erickson's love for photography and exploration has allowed his avocation and vocation to merge, creating a fully developed mountain adventure.
