Jonathan "Jonny" was born into a life of adventure on March 28, 1974 in Singapore.

In June he was tragically killed by an avalanche while attempting a new route on Mount Edgar

in Sichuaun Province, China.

for the first few years of his life. Jonathan saw the world from the back seat of a pop-up camper as the family took their time traveling westward from Thailand to California.

Jonny founded the internationally-acclaimed Adventure Film Festival in Boulder, CO to provide a platform where adventure filmmaker could share their work.

Jonathan dedicated his life to his loves: his family, his friends, and the mountain peaks forever on the horizon, waiting to be explored. He was the embodiment of the Golden Rule and was larger than life legend that will be deeply missed. Johnthan is survived by his parents, Phyllis

and John Copp and his sister,Aimee.

Jonny lived his dream and is teaching us how to live ours.
