Salomon TV presents, “Mountain State with Josh Daiek.”
In pursuit of the endless journey to find solitude and challenging lines in the mountains, Josh Daiek finds himself smack dab in the middle of nowhere Nevada. Summiting 13,000 foot peaks, flashing steep couloirs and bagging first descents were all part of the allure, but it certainly doesn’t come easy for Josh and crew. Sketchy avalanche conditions, near-death crashes, unpredictable weather and season-ending injuries are just a few of the hurdles the crew faces while exploring the most mountainous state in the lower 48.
