Chill, man

Snowboarder Mike Barthel of Minneapolis, along with five other extreme winter sports professionals, traveled to the University's North Campus to entertain revelers during the third annual Loop Ice Carnival Jan. 19. WUSTL partnered with the Loop Special Business District to host the extreme sports event at North Campus, where the pros performed stunts with the help of a cherry-picker, a ramp and snow by the truckful. The carnival, which took place throughout the University City Loop area, also featured ice sculptures, live bands, a chili cook-off and other activities.
