The transport guys here at Mt. Snow are key. With the competition sites being so scattered about the mountain walking has become a major chore. So in the name of appreciation and thanks for our feet, here is an acknowledgement of the driver who gave me a ride over to the slopestyle course today. However certainly a man of action, he was not a man of many words.

Mark Howlbey transport superman.

What is your name? Matt Howlbey

What is your official position here at the Winter X Games?
I work transport, give athletes and personnel rides up and down the hill on snowmobiles.

So what do you do when the X Games are not in town?
I'm a snowmaker here at Mt. Snow.

Are you guys making any snow this week
We'll make a little bit tomorrow where we need it.

So you must be a local right?
Yep live right over in Wardsboro.

Are there any events you're stoked to check out? Snowmobiling maybe?
Yeah, I try to glance at the action in between the trips. I'll check out what I can.

Right on, thanks

Thank you. Have a good one.
