He founded the district's outdoor education program, Everything Outdoor Steamboat. Matts love of the outdoors flowed into the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports club, where he served as a board member for 16 years. He is a house builder, saddle maker and welder. His book, Essays of Mountain Cowboys, focused on his years as a range rider is set to be published later next month . "Now, In a screen dominated age, I can't think of a more critical time to introduce kids to their outside world" he explains.. By teaching outdoor skills to our kids, we hope to instill the love of the natural world to those that will inherit it. An instructor can see into the future just a little, and equip kids for obstacles that they have no idea might be headed their way.
