Chris Hansen, is a freelance writer specializing in backcountry snowboarding and skiing and their related industries. He lives in Portland, Oregon but is at home anywhere the snow falls. To support his snowboard habit, Chris runs the back-shop at a backcountry ski and mountaineering store in Portland called Oregon Mountain Community. He is also a certified snowboard and telemark instructor and teaches for the Ski and Snowboard Mechanic's Workshop in the fall. When Chris isn't drilling holes in perfectly good skis or writing about snowboarding, you can (if you're lucky) find him snowboarding, backcountry skiing or quaffing a dark pint at the local watering hole. If you're in the area, give him a call at 503-736-3144.
