About the Author

Kurt Larson comes from the backwoods of Upper Michigan where he was raised from his birth there in 1958. While studying Mining Engineering at Michigan Technological University he earned beer money by writing for the Michigan Tech Lode, Houghton's Daily Mining Gazette and occasionally Ski Racing magazine. Kurt believed in not letting schooling get in the way of his education and as an engineer in training did a lot of skiing across North America. One night in a bar he was asked to take up a job as a Mining Engineer in the United Kingdom. Kurt looked at it as an excuse to ski in Europe. He currently does a day job is Director of a company in the minerals industry and is grateful to live with his family between the mountains and the sea on the west coast of Scotland.
