Do you ever stop and wonder, "What's Gary Johnson up to?" If it doesn't happen to be one of the two days a year he is being mobbed by fans at the Conservative Political Action Conference, then there is one probable answer: He's skiing.

Once upon a time, before serving as the governor of New Mexico and long before his Aleppo moment, Johnson even had aspirations to be a ski racer, Esquire reports. Since losing the 2016 election, he hasn't done much more than ski, actually. Last year, Johnson spent more than 100 days on the mountain, whether in Sun Valley, Jackson Hole, or Lake Louise.
