on January 20, 2003, the best snowboarder in the world lost his life in an avalanche in the Selkirk Mountains of British Columbia. It is a testament to Craig Kelly's reputation, character and athletic abilities that none will argue the fact that he was the best. He was the first true profes-sional snowboarding athlete and a four-time freestyle world champion with a laundry list of accomplish-ments who found himself drawn to the wild snow of the backcountry.Craig once told me that powder kept him on track in life.
