Timothy G. Morrissey, Ph.D.

I have skied every month of the year since November 2016

I participate in a hobby called, Turns All Year in which I ski at least once every month of the year. Even in July, August, and September, you can find my taking my skis for a walk on some obscure patch of snow tucked away in the Rocky Mountains. Nearly all of my ski adventures, both in the resort and in the backcountry, are documented on my YouTube channel.

6 Sentimental Gear for Summer Skiing. Turns all Year Month 83. Isabelle Glacier.

I have been participating in Turns All Year for nearly 7 years, meaning skiing at least once a month every consecutive month. Over these 7 years, I have had a bunch of different ski equipment and gear. Some of the gear are simply tools to get the job done, but a lot of my gear is super sentimental to me because of where I got it, where it has been with me over the years, what it represents, or who gifted it to me. Here I talk about 6 pieces of turns all year gear that are really sentimental to me. All while getting out there for month 83 at Isabelle Glacier. September 2023 I found my way to Isebella Glacier outside of Brainard Lake for Turns All Year Month 83. I parked at the Niwot Picnic Area and hiked past Lost Lake and Isabelle Lake. Somehow I found my way off the trail past the third of 4 lakes which added some time and awkward scrambling to the trip. I did get to see a family of moose which made the detour worth it. I eventually found my way back on the trail, up the stair stepper, and onto the glacier. I few icy, sun-cupped turns and month 83 was completed. Turned out to be a 13 mile day due to some unexpected detours which only increased my smiles per hour for the day. Fingers crossed for some October snow so I can take the easy way out and use the lifts next month to complete year 7.

Turns All Year - Year 6 of Skiing Every Month of the Year

For the 6th year in a row, I have skied every month of the year. That means a lot of resort skiing in the winter and some terrible hiking on frozen ice and dirt in the summer.

July Skiing on Mount Bancroft Colorado. Turns All Year Month 81.

July Skiing on Mount Bancroft Colorado. Turns All Year Month 81.

Year 7, Month 81 of Turns all year took me back to Mount Bancroft right outside of St Mary, Colorado. Because I had to walk the road without a high clearance vehicle the round trip was 9 miles, 2800 vertical feet and took about 6 hours. Totally worth it for some late July skiing. -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- Please subscribe for more videos -- http://subscribe.tgmorrissey.com Learn more about me -- http://tgmorrissey.com Support the channel by buying a sticker -- https://www.tgmorrissey.com/stickers -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- The video equipment I use (Amazon Affiliate Links) GoPro Hero 5 Black -- http://amzn.to/2yniAHr External Hard Drive -- https://amzn.to/2LfCZpN Karma Grip -- https://amzn.to/2LbIdmd Perfect tripod for GoPro -- https://amzn.to/2IPITzz Micro sd card -- https://amzn.to/2IudN0Z Extra Go Pro Batteries -- https://amzn.to/2IApdvW Super Camera -- https://amzn.to/2LxrObT All the tools used in my camper build -- http://bit.ly/TGMorrisseyParts -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- A huge thanks to the musical artist: Get your music for youtube videos here -- https://artlist.io/Timothy-173472

The classic September St Mary's Glacier ski. This wrapped up month 71 of turns all year, just over an hour door to door.

Turns All Year, Month 70. Patch Skiing in August off of Jones Pass Colorado.

Turns all year continues into Month 69. This month I went to Jones Pass outside of Empire Colorado to do some true patch skiing. A subscriber who has been skiing every month of the year for over 130 months suggested it to me and I went for it. A very easy approach that most stock SUVs can get to. Then a quick walk along the continental divide and ~30 feet of terrible dirty snow. This is skiing in August for you. Plus, in this video, I take some time to chat about what has been going on in the channel recently. I think many of my long-time subscribers will really enjoy the discussion of my companies, including Snow Visa, Why I decided to continue Turns All Year, and even a new camper in the works. 0:00 - 2:09 Driving to Snow 2:09 - 3:35 Hiking to Snow 3:36 - 4:39 Snow Visa 4:39 - 5:53 Skiing 5:53 - 6:39 New Camper 6:40 - 7:18 Artimus Robotics 7:19 - 8:00 Decision to continue turns all year 8:00 - 9:41 Snow Visa 25% Discount code for Snow Visa for my youtube viewers: YouTubeFriend SnowVisa.com -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- Please subscribe for more videos -- http://subscribe.tgmorrissey.com Learn more about me -- http://tgmorrissey.com Support the channel by buying a sticker -- https://www.tgmorrissey.com/stickers -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- The video equipment I use (Amazon Affiliate Links) GoPro Hero 5 Black -- http://amzn.to/2yniAHr External Hard Drive -- https://amzn.to/2LfCZpN Karma Grip -- https://amzn.to/2LbIdmd Perfect tripod for GoPro -- https://amzn.to/2IPITzz Micro sd card -- https://amzn.to/2IudN0Z Extra Go Pro Batteries -- https://amzn.to/2IApdvW Super Camera -- https://amzn.to/2LxrObT All the tools used in my camper build -- http://bit.ly/TGMorrisseyParts -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- A huge thanks to the musical artist: Get your music for youtube videos here -- https://artlist.io/Timothy-173472

Sunset skiing at St Mary's Glacier in July. Turns all year. Month 69.

On a Wednesday evening in July I met up with a new friend who wanted to learn the ways of the turns all year. We took a hike in mixed rain and sun to earn some great summer turns. The streak continues. Month 69 in the books at St. Mary's Glacier. Check out his video too for a different perspective of the day. @Wanderlust073 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHiQ7YKTThk&ab_channel=Wanderlust073 -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- Please subscribe for more videos -- http://subscribe.tgmorrissey.com Learn more about me -- http://tgmorrissey.com Support the channel by buying a sticker -- https://www.tgmorrissey.com/stickers -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- The video equipment I use (Amazon Affiliate Links) GoPro Hero 5 Black -- http://amzn.to/2yniAHr External Hard Drive -- https://amzn.to/2LfCZpN Karma Grip -- https://amzn.to/2LbIdmd Perfect tripod for GoPro -- https://amzn.to/2IPITzz Micro sd card -- https://amzn.to/2IudN0Z Extra Go Pro Batteries -- https://amzn.to/2IApdvW Super Camera -- https://amzn.to/2LxrObT All the tools used in my camper build -- http://bit.ly/TGMorrisseyParts -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- A huge thanks to the musical artist: Get your music for youtube videos here -- https://artlist.io/Timothy-173472

Whiteout skiing in Colorado in June. Turns all year month 60 something. Year 6 and counting.

I told myself I was going to hang up the boots, but in June I found myself skiing and to keep the turns all year streak alive. We are in Month 60 something, headed into year 6. Back at St. Mary's Glacier which was in great shape. -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- Please subscribe for more videos -- http://subscribe.tgmorrissey.com Learn more about me -- http://tgmorrissey.com Support the channel by buying a sticker -- https://www.tgmorrissey.com/stickers -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- The video equipment I use (Amazon Affiliate Links) GoPro Hero 5 Black -- http://amzn.to/2yniAHr External Hard Drive -- https://amzn.to/2LfCZpN Karma Grip -- https://amzn.to/2LbIdmd Perfect tripod for GoPro -- https://amzn.to/2IPITzz Micro sd card -- https://amzn.to/2IudN0Z Extra Go Pro Batteries -- https://amzn.to/2IApdvW Super Camera -- https://amzn.to/2LxrObT All the tools used in my camper build -- http://bit.ly/TGMorrisseyParts -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- A huge thanks to the musical artist: Get your music for youtube videos here -- https://artlist.io/Timothy-173472

If have a video of nearly every month of skiing since November 2016. Plus these videos are arranged on a map so you can follow along the obscure places I find snow in the middle of August.
