Still a Michigander at heart, Colin Clancy lives in the mountains of Utah with his wife Amy, sons Jackson and Max, and dogs Daisy and Matilda. Colin spends his free time outside—skiing, fly fishing, and hunting—and drawing and painting in India ink. He has degrees from Western Michigan University and Northern Michigan University, is the author of Ski Bum (2022), and has published work in The Ski Journal, The Flyfish Journal, Condé Nast Traveler, Powder Magazine, Strung Magazine, and elsewhere. He works as a writer—and sometimes photographer—in the outdoor industry. His shop, bigwaterbigearth.com, is a remnant of the screen-printing company, Big Water Apparel, that he started in 2011. In it you’ll find original art, prints, and short-run silkscreens.
