Heading North

Richard heads to Killington, Vermont, for women’s World Cup skiing and to chat with Olympic skiers before hitting the slopes himself. Next, he ventures to New Hampshire to meet artist Eric Aho and see him work on one of his famed “ice cut” paintings at a frozen lake. Finally, we visit the campus of Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH, for a tour of the monumental murals at Baker-Berry Library.
