BOZEMAN — “I mostly just jump off cliffs and hope I land it,” said Kameron Conklin.

The Minnesota native has been snowboarding since he was young, but as he got older, he dreamed of trading the Midwest hills for the mountains out west.

“Moved out here almost 10 years ago and snowboard every winter,” Conklin said.

He spends his winters hitting the slopes at Big Sky, Bridger Bowl — really, anywhere he can ride. For Conklin, snowboarding is more than a passion.

“I had a couple first-place finishes and then a couple other podium finishes,” he said.
