“Stunning setting with perfect snow and redrock. Tuk is a great objective for any ski purist or multi-sport adventurist.” (FCSDofNA)

“When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.”
— Navajo saying
Mountains are a skier's passion, but for many people in North America, they're far more than that. They're a source of life, death, spirits, ancestry and most important, it's their home.
