That’s not me in the yellow. That’s me back there in the distance making my point this past weekend near the summit of Mount Nebo. It’s a TGR maggot thing. (click the image and you’ll see it better)
Woke Saturday morning to the pitter-patter of rain on my window. Rolling over I thought that the previous plans to ski would be on hold. I can tell I’ve lost the winter mentality. Regardless, my ski partners for the day arrived in Kamas and we headed up the Mirror Lake Highway in search of snow […]
TodayI skied at Snowbird. They had received over 17″ in the past 48 hours and although it had settled the experience was beyond good. I didn’t take any pictures of myself while skiing but the expression below of my son McKinley from our last ski day at Deer Valley/Park City sums up how I felt […]
Took McKinley skiing this past week to Deer Valley. Not that it was anything out of the ordinary but then again, it was. After an early morning ski tour on Mt. Aire with friends I came home, got a couple things off my plate and went and pulled McKinley out of school to ski the […]
A month or so ago I was up at Brighton Resort with the Bluehouse Skis crew for the Bluehouse Rail Jam. It was cool to see all the skiers that came out to compete. Brighton hooked up the kind spot and a slew of sponsors including Tramdock.com kicked down prizes. The winner took home some […]
My buddy Tim Cartwright loves skiing more than anyone I know. On any given day, 365 days a year I could phone him up with the suggestion of a ski trip, a destination, a line on a peak and he’d be game. He’d likely up the ante by suggesting an aspect to the adventure that […]
I’ve long contended that Deer Valley is a great place to ski and despite the nay sayers there are some cliffs, drops, steeps and plenty of untracked powder to be had amid the corduroy and the Bogner one piece suits. Dan from Bluehouse Skis is evidence that I’m not blowing smoke. I can’t tell if […]
I was skiing at Park City Mountain Resort this morning with Brian Kahn of “Locals Have More Fun” and I found myself thinking to myself, in perhaps an egotistical way, “Locals indeed have more fun”. But what is it about being a local that is so cool? I mean, everyone is a local to wherever […]
It’s always great to get out and ski but even more so when all my friends are at the “office”. Making it a great day was calling it “work” and skiing with a fun crew of people all having a great time didn’t suck either. Tuesday I was up at Park City Mountain Resort with […]
I love skiing. Surprisingly, to some, I also love the ski industry. Yes they are two separate things. I’ve heard some tell me that they have enjoyed skiing more once they left the ski industry than while they were working in the ski industry. Perhaps that’s because they, along with most who live to work […]
