Following a successful first year, Michelle Parker is back with a second season of her Red Bull series, Originate, with episode one, Tahoe–Stomping Grounds. Growing up in Lake Tahoe, California, Parker is privy to the backcountry access the area provides. A string of low snow years have provided little opportunity for the pro skier to film around her home turf but when the storm of the decade dumped frozen flakes by the feet last season, Parker dropped everything to take advantage of the bottomless conditions. Without having time to gather her typical crew, Parker invited snowboarders Danny Davis, Red Gerard and Brock Crouch on the last-minute mission.
