“A recent incident in Jackson has me thinking about how some companies are really quick to pull the trigger and distance themselves from their athletes when things go south. You’d think if there was really a strong relationship there, they would work through it together and move on, perhaps even support the person publicly. Everybody makes mistakes, right? Live and learn.”
What this guy is talking about is the firing of a Exum guide in Jackson Wyoming. Someone posted a video of him on YouTube using a snowmobile to access a peak in Teton Park. Snowmobiles are allowed by the park service on Jackson Lake if you’re fishing on the lake, but not for trying to ski a peak. It was found that he violated the rules and was subsequently fired by Exum Guides.
OK WR Gang, I am sure you have an opinion about this. Here is a video of the entire climb:
The snowmobile part sure looks like fun. Heck, the whole thing looks like it might have been worth it! But illegal things sometimes are. I would vote for forgiveness. But that’s me, what do you think? I used to be such a “rules” girl.
