Jim Morrison cemented his reputation as one of the greatest ski mountaineers of all time with a first descent of the Lhotse Couloir, in 2018, one of the last remaining premiere high-altitude ski lines in the world. Decades before that landmark achievement, Morrison was accumulating a lifetime of skiing experience around the globe. From Chamonix to Alaska and the Indian Himalaya, Morrison has climbed and skied the some of the world’s most demanding peaks, including a first descent of Papsura, a new ski line on Cho Oyu, as well as a summit and partial ski descent of Mt. Everest. In addition to his time in the mountains, Morrison is also a successful entrepreneur, owning and operating a luxury home construction business in Lake Tahoe. On top of that, he gives back to his community as a board member of his local airport district and is actively involved in the environmental non-profit, Protect Our Winters.
