In the early days, back before “backcountry skiing” became buzz words, a core group of BD employees led by Alex Lowe would rise before dawn, head into the mountains beyond the reach of lifts, and pillage the Wasatch powder. Lowe and crew brought an infectious stoke to skiing off-piste, and these morning missions, now dubbed “dawn patrols,” inspired the equipment they’d create during the day—equipment engineered to keep up with the hard-charging employees. Today, not much has changed. Enter the BD lot at 4 a.m. on any given winter morning and you’ll find more than a few die-hard employees gearing up for what’s now become a tradition, a way of life. We all have rituals. At BD, backcountry skiing is ours.
