From Fliers

It is with a heavy heart that I write this post. Today Cr Johnson passed away at Squaw Valley. I do not know all the details but two Porters team members, Jt Holmes and Timy Dutton have confirmed that CR hit his head on a rock off Light Towers on Headwall at Squaw Valley. Chappy spoke with Jt and he said that CR had the biggest smile and best attitude for the ski season. Anyone that personally knew CR and even those that are fans of CR knew what he had overcome to be the caliber of skier he was. Our hearts and thoughts are with CR's family and close friends. R.I.P friend.

I have watching CR rip it up in ski movies over the years, and followed his sucess. The guy was a ski legend and rocked on skis. I am absolutely shocked about the news. R.I.P , my thoughts and prayers are with his family at this time.
