RSS FeedThis vid has absolutely nothing to do with snow, but apparently those pink furry guys are called snowths. That’s close enough for me on a Friday.

It’s hot out there, be careful
July 30th, 2009 
Justin How hot? Well, the candles melted inside. As did the bar soap. As in the bar soap is now liquid soap. Make sure you bring a LOT of water if you’re doing anything athletic outside.
TR: Mt. St. Helens at midnight
July 29th, 2009 Justin After a 100 degree day, a half dozen and change Rainier and a pitcher or two of Bridgeport IPA the suggestion was floated to start our hike at midnight or so instead of 4 AM so that we’d miss most of the following day’s heat. Genius suggestion, undoubtedly, though I didn’t account for my buzz [...]
Bear v. BearVault. Bear wins.
July 27th, 2009 Justin Well hell, this takes ‘smarter than an average bear’ to another level, and after reading I’m embarassed to admit that sometimes I need help from someone else to open my BV500.
BC on a budget #1
July 24th, 2009 Justin Let’s face it – skiing and snowboarding aren’t cheap, and backcountry snowsports even less so. Summertime is the best time to buy your backcountry kit as typically stores are trying to blow out of whatever inventory they have left from the prior year to make room for the upcoming gear in the fall. If you [...]
Adam Yauch (aka MCA of the Beastie Boys) diagnosed with cancer
July 20th, 2009 Justin Music and riding go hand in hand, and the Beastie Boys have always been a favorite of mine, as well as many in the snow/skate scene and other musicians that are involved in that scene. Video below is the announcement vid from their site. Best wishes to MCA as he goes out to kick cancer’s [...]
More 09/10 shred flick teasers
July 19th, 2009 Justin This time it’s from the boys at Absinthe, who know how to put a film together. (Yes, the audio cuts out somewhere past the 2minute mark. Not sure what’s going on there, the vid they have on their site is only 2 minutes and changed so maybe a Youtuber spliced some new footage in there?) [...]
It’s hot out, may I suggest watching a shred flick teaser?
July 18th, 2009 Justin Of course I can, it’s my blog. This vid has absolutely zero to do with backcountry snowboarding, but everything to do with creativity and having fun on snow with your friends and enemies (frenemies?)
Bikes ‘n Stuff

Eddie Bauer assets sold for $286 million
July 17th, 2009 Justin Golden Gate capital won the auction for Eddie Bauer’s assets. Winning bid: $286 million. No mention as to what effect this will have on their newly launched (possibly newly closed) line, First Ascent, that was supposed to get EB back to their roots and start to distance them from just being another khaki retailer at [...]
