In part 4 of our ATLiens series, I get to talk to Andrew Samantha Knowles, a snowboarding mountain climber who hopes to get certified in both scuba and sky diving. He is working as a fellow lift operator, using his ride breaks to ensure he can hit a 720 triple Mcnasty something by the end of the season. Krevlar? You bet your sweet ass he does. 

 

Season 1 - Park City, Utah

This season’s adventure takes place in Park City, Utah, where I’m working as a Liftee (lift operator) on the largest ski resort in North America. I came out here in order to learn how to snowboard and forge connections that will last a lifetime. My hope, as always, is that if I stay open to it, life will present me with opportunities that will lead me to more and more adventures.
