class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mad River Ski Patrol Sweep<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mad River Ski Patrol has volunteered to sweep the Camel&#8217;s Hump Challenge course for the past 15 years or so, making sure all entrants make their way safely around the course. We have had as many as 12 members in our sweep group and as few as one. This past year the event was separated into two separate weekends to accommodate all the skiers that came out to support this great event. I swept the course on my <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Objective BC skis (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/voile-objective-bc-skis.html\" target=\"_blank\">Objective BC skis<\/a> with another volunteer on a beautiful late winter Sunday, with epic conditions and bluebird skies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As usual, the event went on without a hitch and without incident. I am happy to report that there has never been an accident on the course requiring patrol attention nor has there been any skiers that have needed assistance off the course. This does not mean, however, that there are not great stories that come as a result of this event. As a matter of fact, there is one story that has become legend among the Mad River Patrol.<\/p>\n\n\n<style

class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Lone Skier<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>On a particularly cold and stormy Challenge about eight years ago, our sweep team approached the beaver ponds along the southern portion of the course, the approximate halfway point and the highest elevation on the trail. As we entered the ponds, with their majestic views of the Camel\u2019s Hump, we stopped for a moment to take in the views and catch our breath. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At that instant, from out of the woods on the trail behind us, that we had just skied, came a skier. Charging through the wind and snow like a Clydesdale in full stride, with his head down, he was about to ski right by us without saying \u201cHello.\u201d We raised our arms and let out a \u201cYo!\u201d in unison. Startled, the skier looked up as if being awakened from a trance. I said to him, are you coming up from the Monroe Trail? Obviously, he couldn\u2019t be coming from the Challenge Trail, we had just swept it.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"cs-content x-global-block x-global-block-2527 e2527-e0\"><div class=\"x-section e2527-e1 m1y7-0\"><div class=\"x-row e2527-e2 m1y7-1 m1y7-2\"><div class=\"x-row-inner\"><div class=\"x-col e2527-e3 m1y7-3\"><div class=\"x-widget-area x-hide-xs e2527-e4 m1y7-4\"><div id=\"endo_wrc_widget-2\" class=\"widget widget_endo_wrc_widget\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/how-to-receive-a-free-binding-mount-wax-and-detune\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8185\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/blog-ad-free-mount-1598x247-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1598\" height=\"247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/blog-ad-free-mount-1598x247-1.jpg 1598w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/blog-ad-free-mount-1598x247-1-300x46.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/blog-ad-free-mount-1598x247-1-1024x158.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/blog-ad-free-mount-1598x247-1-768x119.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/blog-ad-free-mount-1598x247-1-1536x237.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/blog-ad-free-mount-1598x247-1-100x15.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/blog-ad-free-mount-1598x247-1-1064x164.jpg 1064w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/blog-ad-free-mount-1598x247-1-1438x222.jpg 1438w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1598px) 100vw, 1598px\" \/><\/a><\/div><\/div><div class=\"x-widget-area x-hide-lg x-hide-md x-hide-sm x-hide-xl e2527-e5 m1y7-4\"><div id=\"endo_wrc_widget-3\" class=\"widget widget_endo_wrc_widget\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/voile-hoback-d-avalanche-shovel.html\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2580 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/mobile-hoback-d-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/mobile-hoback-d-2.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/mobile-hoback-d-2-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/mobile-hoback-d-2-100x56.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNo,&#8221; he said. \u201cI\u2019m doing the Camel\u2019s Hump Challenge.&#8221; I told him that we were sweeping the course, and that we were the last group of the day. \u201cHow did you get behind us,&#8221; I asked. \u201cWhere did we pass you?

An old and worn out parka. A hat that looked as if he had worn it every day for the past 40 years. And a rugged, handsome face, like the Marlboro Man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He explained that he was the first skier to leave that morning, ahead of the large pack of entrants, and that when he came around towards the end, he felt \u201cgood\u201d so he decided to go around one more time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then with a tip of his hat he explained that he had to keep moving. We all nodded, mouths agape, and head\u2019s turning in unison as we watched him glide away with a rhythm common to only those who basically live on their skis in winter. The Patrol is full of good skiers, but this guy was different. It was a beautiful site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We never thought to ask his name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Analysts Apres<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>When we arrived back at the start it was nearly dark, as we usually find the last group somewhere after the halfway point and then push them into the finish. Once we got into our comfortable apre\u2019s ski clothes, found the beer and a spot by the fire we started asking around to find out who this animal was. To our surprise, nobody knew. Most had no idea of his existence. It was as if we were taking about Sasquatch. Then, one person said that his name might be Lew Coty. They said he usually comes early, blazes the trail, and then leaves. \u201cHe\u2019s not much of talker,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lew Coty.

class=\"wp-block-heading\">Looking for Lew Coty<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the next few years, each morning that we arrived at the start I would ask if there was an entrant that year by the name of Lew Coty. Each year I was met with the same answer. No luck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I figured we must have the wrong name. But who was this masked man?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then one day about five years after first seeing him, he appeared. We were sweeping the course again and on this particular day we had abnormally beautiful snow. The best in the history of the event. It was soft and deep; not the bullet-proof, ice capades that we are normally blessed with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Snow continued to fall throughout the day, softly. Like a snow globe that had been shaken about two minutes ago. Our group was at about the \u00be point in the course and we were stopping frequently, pushing a small group with one intrepid 80-plus year-old man who was skiing the course for the first time. We were happy to be making sure that he was getting around safely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As we sat in the snow on the side of the trail, giving our octogenarian friend a little breathing room, we marveled at the beauty of the Camel\u2019s Hump woods, the falling snow, and the day\u2019s decline. I was now thinking that this would be another year in which we would not find our mystery skier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At that moment, out of the fading light, in the distance on the trail behind us, there was movement. I stood quickly and made my way onto the trail. It was a skier, a lone skier. It had to be him.<\/p>\n\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\">a.eg-henryharrison-element-1,a.eg-henryharrison-element-2{-webkit-transition:all .4s linear;   -moz-transition:all .4s linear;   -o-transition:all

I thought of Lew and asked my friend if he had ever heard of him. \u201cLew Coty? Of course, I know who Lew Coty is. Everyone in Stowe knows of the Coty family. And anyone who grew up in Stowe in the \u201850\u2019s and \u201860\u2019s knows that Billy Kidd was not the best skier in Stowe, it was Lew Coty.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I ended up getting Lew\u2019s contact information and subsequently I became part of his weekend ski group. He takes groups of skiers, anyone hearty enough to try to keep up with him, on excursions around the Stowe area; which he knows like the back of his hand. These are all-day jaunts. Anyone with interest can contact him through me.

By the time he was eight he was introduced to Mad River Glen in Vermont. Since that time his winters have been devoted to skiing, with Vermont always being the home base.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A long-time patroller at Mad River (widely accepted as the Mecca of telemark skiing in the U.S.A.), John splits his time between telemark and alpine skiing and spends his weekends touring the Vermont backcountry. He also chips in and helps patrol at Cochran&rsquo;s Ski Area (a tiny nearby hill that has possibly produced more world cup skiers than any other mountain) in Richmond, Vermont and has worked as a backcountry guide. When he&rsquo;s not skiing, he&rsquo;s fly fishing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Passionate about his family and friends, skiing, fly fishing, and the environment, he is a self-employed geologist\/environmental consultant specializing in the remediation of petroleum in soil and groundwater.
