SuperFly Energy Drink, RedBull in a Tablet?

Now don’t get me wrong, I’ve been loving my Nuun for the last month or so and it does a great job of keeping me hydrated.  But, sometimes I’m looking for a little kick in the pants to keep me going on those long days.  A lot of the time I will pack a RedBull […]

Summer Outdoor Retailer, Day 2

Sunset driving into Swan Valley, Idaho. NOT Photoshopped! My second of two days at the 2008 Summer Outdoor Retailer show was extremely busy. I had multiple meetings with people in regards to some current and new relationships with TetonAt.com and the store. Here are a few more new products I saw…as well as some changes […]

Summer Outdoor Retailer 2008, Day 1

Busy day yesterday at the Outdoor Retailer Trade Show and even busier day today. Still, it’s great to meet up with old friends and meet people you’ve only exchanged emails with. Just a quick blurb about some of the things I saw before I try to get some sleep in preparation for a long day […]

TetonAT Milestone

Well…I don’t know about biggest fan, but Tri Roberts from Kentucky helped me pass my first milestone…and I’m trying to not let it go to my head. He asked for my autograph…and on a TetonAT visor he bought over the winter no less. Thanks for stopping by the shop Tri! And thanks to all those […]

News…and a Little More Outdoor Retailer

Time to start planning!!! The members of the 2008 US Ski Mountaineering Team have been announced by the United States Ski Mountaineering Association and it looks like I’m headed for Europe!!! Here is a link to the World Ski Mountaineering Championships website. One of the races has 10’000′ of vertical. The members of the team […]

2008 Winter Outdoor Retailer: Day 1

It’s 10 pm and I’m just getting home from my first of two days at the 2008 Winter Outdoor Retailer Show. I’m down here looking at product for the store, as well as doing a little promoting of TetonAT.com and soliciting some new partnerships on the side. Some have been long in the making, and […]

Goodbye to Black Diamond Skier…Billy Poole

Photo: Adam Clark Courtesy: Black Diamond Equipment When I got home from dinner last night, I was going to write a bit about the demo day at Outdoor Retailer…until I heard the bad news. During a film shoot for Warren Miller, extreme freeride skier and Black Diamond sponsored athlete Billy Poole, died in an accident […]

WasatchAT: Kesler Peak, East Couloir

After a decent nights sleep, I awoke to about 6” of snow on the van parked in Sugarhouse. As I pulled out to go to my friend Guy Evan’s house, it was evident that the streets hadn’t been plowed and many two wheel drive cars were struggling…if not completely in the ditch. Guy lives at […]

North Face Heathen Challenge at Sunlight

After Saturday’s race, I got some decent rest in before the race at Sunlight on Sunday. We had five people crammed in our slope side room, a little crowed…but not too bad. Since my morning plan seemed to work the day before, I stayed the course and choked down a few calories before heading out […]

New Hands Free CamelBak

My new hydration setup. I don’t know about you all, but I am definitely a CamelBak-type hydration fan. I don’t like to stop that much on the uphills, so I find being about to drink on the go helpful instead of waiting for a break and then guzzling water. Yeah…occasionally the tubes freeze, but filling […]

Fans of TetonAT

At the Outdoor Retailer this summer, John Griber introduced me to a couple Sherpas that had traveled to the United States for a NOLS course. Funny…seems they had already heard about TetonAT.

More on the Suunto CORE

I’ve only had one of the new Suunto CORE watches for a few days now and I can’t believe how many people have asked me about it. When I first saw these watches at Summer Outdoor Retailer in August, I thought they were mainly just fluffed up old models…focusing on fashion…but after playing with it […]

Be a Hero with GoPro Cameras

Adjustable in every angle You may remember me experimenting with some video last spring and some of you recommended me getting some sort of helmet cam. Well, I’ve been thinking about investing in one and I saw the perfect setup while I was down at the Outdoor Retailer.   I don’t want to spend a […]

Day 2-Outdoor Retailer 07

Just a quick recap from my day at yesterday’s Outdoor Retailer. It all started out with a breakfast with all the shops in our buying group, The Grassroots Retail Group. Here, we talked about products we like and past performance. Many of the shops in the group are from the south, so it can be […]

Day 1-Outdoor Retailer W07

Pretty productive day down here in SLC. Started off at the Ortovox booth with Marcus Petersen and sounds like there is still hope for the S1 avalanche transceiver to be available this season. They have some nice backpacks, and some different shovel designs. One interesting item was a beacon receiver built into the tip of […]

Winter OR Trade Show in SLC

Well I’m down in SLC right now, and today will be my first day at the Outdoor Retailer Trade Show. I have been to many summer shows working for Skinny Skis, but this will be my first one in the winter. I guess I’ve always been too busy skiing or racing. While I’m here, I […]

Chouinard Couloir-Middle Teton

I wanted to sleep in and recover from skiing The Grand yesterday, but I’m back to work today and down to SLC for the Outdoor Retailer Trade Show this weekend…so I have to ski while I can. Luckily, my bro Dustin Lemke charged ahead with me to work out the lactic acid in the legs. […]

Terminator X and F3-New Boots from Scarpa

Looks like I’m skiing The Pyramid today, something I have actually never skied before. Maybe the ‘champagne chutes’ down into Jensen Canyon. Here is a picture of the upcoming ‘Terminator X’ boot from Scarpa for Fall 2007. The new boot is more or less a beefed up F1 which is also compatible with the much […]
