Thirty Years in a White Haze: Dan Egan's Story of Worldwide Adventure 
and the Evolution of Extreme Skiing

Sheltered in a snow cave on Mount Elbrus in 1990 I stared into the mouth of a storm on the tallest peak on the European continent a merciless mountain that claims more lives per year than Everest. When I emerged from the white haze of that storm alive after so many had perished I had no idea how this event would impact the next 30 years of my life.My brother John and I-known as the Egan Brothers-could be seen on the Discovery Channel ESPN and were featured in twelve Warren Miller Ski Films during the 1980s and 1990s. We found our place in history as storytellers and East Coast renegades of skiing and were inducted into the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame in 2017.Thirty Years in a White Haze is a tale of trials success and loss told through worldwide adventure and the evolution of extreme skiing as thirty years of haze dissipates to clarity.-Dan Egan
