I guess I was sick of being a potato farmer. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Special Sections-ATW-ATW_Body_Serif\"><span><strong>Do you ski or snowboard?<\/strong> I do both! I started snowboarding at Never Summer at Monarch and I started skiing here three years ago. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Special Sections-ATW-ATW_Body_Serif\"><span><strong>Do you like skiing or snowboarding more?<\/strong> I like skiing better. I wreck pretty hard on a snowboard, so I can control it better on skis. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Special Sections-ATW-ATW_Body_Serif\"><span><strong>What\u2019s your best night out in Aspen consist of?<\/strong> I stay at the Aspen Day Center up by the hospital and I get a good homem-cooked meal up there. Yolanta\u2019s pretty good about cooking meatloaf or we have steaks or whatever we can muscle up around the kitchen, so that\u2019s my good night. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Special Sections-ATW-ATW_Body_Serif\"><span><strong>Have you had any good experiences with guests lately?<\/strong> You know it\u2019s always a good experience out here. People are real friendly and we\u2019re a family-friendly mountain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Special Sections-ATW-ATW_Body_Serif\"><span><strong>Do you like working at Buttermilk over the other mountains in town?<\/strong> Yeah with the X Games and sometimes the kitchen gives us free burritos. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Special Sections-ATW-ATW_Body_Serif\"><span><strong>How do you choose the music to play at the lifts?<\/strong> I like usually what my boss likes, the classic rewind or vinyl rewind. The pop rocks or the \u201980s or any of that. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aspentimes.com\/news\/meet-your-liftie-nathan-marshall\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: The Aspen Times<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nathan Marshall poses for a portrait while working at the Summit Express Lift at Buttermilk.
