Video TR: Skiing the Southeast Couloir of the South Teton
by February 9th, 2009The Off Square Theater Company Presents K2
by February 8th, 2009I’m not much of an “arts” guy, though some people may say there’s a bit of an art to this blogging stuff, but this play by the Off Square Theater Company sounds like it could be interesting enough for even dopes like myself.

Southeast Couloir Stoke
by February 6th, 2009Got a little lucky a couple days ago and had a fun descent of the Southeast Couloir on the South Teton with Chris Figenshau.

The latest looks to be a new alpine touring binding from SkiTrab called the TR-1. The Tr-1 looks to be [...]
An Argument for Fat Skis
by February 2nd, 2009Would you rather ski in the powderor on it? Me? I’m an on the powder kind of guy these days and ultra-fat skis are the key to staying on top. The fatter the better really, and my BD Megawatts shine for this. In the powder…or on the powder. Which do you prefer? Pro’s to skiing [...]
