Remembering DeSo for Over 20 Years
Agentle mountain that rises above the Yampa Valley
it will always be my favorite area, over France, Utah and Cali. Groves of spaced aspens and powerful pines the tree skiing is the best in the world and seemingly all mine. I know the stashes that this powder-hungry mountain holds, locals protect their pow making outsiders lucky if they are told. Surprisingly steep as you enter Fish Creek this is the dankest turnin’ out of any peak. Powder days bless Mt. Werner nearly every night leaving powder junkies in a state of complete delight. Ghost trees hide as you round the top, their clean white appearance will make you stop.
For those who love the fluff,
head for The Boat expecting to get enough. Phat airs are littered throughout the terrain making a pitch with pow completely insane! I can’t get enough of carvin’ at this place, I’d take a day here over a walk in space.

“I love to be the vehicle to capture and bring to life great design on the page,” says Patterson, who photographed the homes in “Country Living” (page 44) and “The Zen Den” (page 50), as well as the painting studio of his wife, Lance Whitner, for the “Artists’ Spaces” feature on page 62. “Lance and I share the studio, so photographing her space is something that happens naturally and fairly often,” Patterson adds. “Working together is a real joy, although we disagree often; the fact that we are both creatives and business owners allows us to support one another and to be a sounding board as we work.”
Dustin Posiak-Trider
Trider photographed several of the stories in this edition, including “A Tale of Two Gardens” and the “Artists’ Spaces” stories featuring Jeff Yeiser and Sandy Graves. “Every time I approach a new assignment or space, a unique set of challenges presents itself,” Trider explains. “Do I bring in offcamera lighting? How do I add dimension or drama to the space? Do we shoot at night, blue hour or daytime? Do we want to add a human element? The key to a successful shoot, from my experience, is to visualize the composition, visit the space at different times of day, prepare for technical challenges and be willing to adapt to circumstances that are out of your control. Oh, and a laugh or two throughout the process is always appreciated.” Find Trider’s images in the stories on pages 36, 56 and 62.
Leigh Rushton
Rushton captured the images featured in this edition’s Genuine Steamboat photo essay, “Home, Home on the Ranch” (page 20). She started D2 Ranch Photography in 2018 as an escape from the pain associated with the death of her 10-year-old son, Drew. Rushton focused her attention on the animals of D2 Ranch, later to be renamed the Steamboat Cattle Company, and sold prints online and through the Community Ag Alliance. She has now branched out her photography business to include portraits, and is the team photographer for the Steamboat High School hockey team.
