Skiing has been a lifelong passion that began with public school night programs at Bolton Valley, Vermont. Erik spent three years as a ski instructor, has an affinity for freeriding, and still likes to get in some park laps (even though falling hurts a lot more these days). As a hobby, Erik likes to put together ski edits. Check out his YouTube channel.

Trail and alpine running is another lifelong passion for Erik, bringing over 3 decades of experience. While he stepped back from competition, his climbing and running skills combine to help lead, pace, and route find for those training for a running event or just want to get out and run from the forests to the alpine.
