Rest in Peace CR Johnson

CR Johnson, probably one of the most influential skiers of all time and a a guy with the heart of a lion, died a few days ago in Squaw Valley. A few years ago, he survived a traumatic brain injury that put him in a coma and robbed him of all of his physical abilities for quite some time. He had to work so hard to get back to where he was in the skiing industry, and he did, but passed away right at the height of his comeback. Horribly tragic. Thoughts and prayers to his family and yet another reason for me to ski hard on a daily basis.
