Powder Magazine “Photo of the Year”
I’ve just returned from the 2010 Powder Video Awards in Aspen Colorado where Dan Treadway and I won “Photo of the Year” for the image that appeared on the January 2010 cover of Powder Magazine. It was an honour to receive this award in front of some of the most influential people in skiing today. One of the highlights was meeting Warren Miller in person and having the opportunity to thank him for inspiring me to follow my passion for skiing and moving to Whistler at the age of 23. I consider it a privilege to have my work appear in Powder Magazine and thank photo editor David Reddick and his team for this prestigious recognition.

Hi Eric
Mark K Swisher here- From Louisville, Kentucky the Sportsman club of BC — the guy that hooked Canada at Pearl Island.
Earle Spencer III and I just looked at your PICTURE OF THE YEAR and all we know to say is WOW !!!!!!!!
I will never forget the the Pearl Island adventure. That was a life long memory for a good old Kentucky boy!!!!!! Your father in law Mr Higgins is as cool as a fan. The mid-ocean transfer with him still has me nervous . Then for me and “Mr Higgy baby” to go out together was another treat.
My personal email is mks11@bellsouth.net and my personal cell number is 1-502-553-3461. Feel free to call my toll free office at 1-866-633-9924 . Let me know when and how to find some of the pictures you got of my crew and my big king with griffin. I know your a busy man so NO pressure.
The TYHEE on my last morning with Griffin in front of lodge might be a big wall hanger for me if I like it and I’m sure I will. The fish was almost 34 pound. My biggest ever and I think it could be amazing if I get it framed and matted for hanging in my office.
Thanks again
