REMEMBERING DOUG COOMBS: Stories and photos from issues past


COOMBS TRIBUTE: Good words from good friends

A LEGEND FALLS: 4/5 - Coombs died in fall over cliff

The passing of Doug Coombs has delivered one of the hardest hits to the ski community in recent memory. In remembrance of his life, we at Powdermag.com have collected stories and photographs of him that appeared over the years in Powder magazine. His influence was felt far and wide, and hopefully these articles will help you remember why. And for those who didn't know him, they'll introduce you to a man who defined the very essence of what it means to be a skier. --Ed.
