🎿 GLEN PLAKE
The mohawk. The mountains. The legend.
Known as the “Pied Piper of Skiing,” Glen Plake is arguably the most recognizable skier on the planet. A three-time World Champion and founding father of extreme skiing , he changed the sport forever with his fearless big-mountain style — and that iconic mohawk.
From Chamonix to the Himalayas, he’s completed over 100 ascents and descents of the world’s biggest peaks. And he’s still out there, spreading the love of skiing one small mountain town at a time.
