You Are Here: Snoqualmonix is a collection of black and white image pairings made in the backcountry terrain surrounding Snoqualmie Pass — a place locals have taken to calling Snoqualmonix, a mashup of Snoqualmie and Chamonix that captures both the ambition and the absurdity of what's possible here. Each pairing holds two truths at once: a skier or snowboarder in motion, floating through conditions most people will never find, set against the raw scale of where that moment is actually happening — couloirs hemmed by hundred-foot cliffs, needle-thin ridgelines, frozen waves of terrain that defy easy description. This is a place you have to go to know, and Scott Rinckenberger has spent decades learning its moods, waiting for the right conditions, and watching certain lines come into focus. These images are the result. Read Scott's full artist statement →
