Hayden Wyatt, LEAP
Hayden was born in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. He was lucky to be raised in a small cabin in Grand Teton National Park, and spent his winters skiing and his summers playing in the Tetons. His parents are mountain guides, and had him climbing and skiing from a young age.
His connection with Grand Teton National Park fostered his passion for sustainability and conservation, and the deep snow fueled his love for skiing.
Hayden moved to Squamish in 2015, where he began to film and explore the incredible mountainous terrain. At Quest, he’s an active member of the Student Environmental Committee and the Quest Freeride Club. He is currently working on a two- year short ski film called More-By-Less.
