I had to get out of the office. I’m sure you’ve had those types of days when you and the office need some time apart. The blessing in my life is that I can tell my boss (me) that I need to get out. The curse is that I don’t tell myself I [...]

I’ve had the privelge of meeting and even skiing with a few of the Utah Avalanche Forecasters over the years. Sure, they’re just like the rest of us, putting their skins on one ski at a time (no, they don’t have magical powers that can do both skis at one time). And while they [...]

I took a sanity day last week and got out with old friends and new ones alike. Destination: Timpanogos.
It seems I have a love affair with this mountain. But how could you not? It’s massive, taking about the same area as Little Cottonwood Canyon if you measured the length of the [...]

I’ve not really been one for celebrating the new year because in reality each day is the start of a new year, despite what the calendar may read.
But, since the calendar did turn 1 year older, I suppose then that skiing with Alex and Derek in the Uintas was a great way to end the [...]

Going Fast, I love it. Cynthia says that my driving is too fast. I know this.
Here are two examples of going very fast (three if you count the picture):

1. I’ve never owned a bike computer. I do now and last Saturday’s ride on Wolf Creek Pass was a fun testing ride for it. [...]

This past Saturday I headed up the Mirror Lake Highway with friends Jim Holland and Alex Stoy to slide on snow. As typical when we get together the adventure was a bit more than just sliding on snow.
After ascending the NW Coulior of Reids Peak we ditched the skis and climbed to the summit [...]

It’s no secret that I love to ski. But I really love to ski when the season is winding down.
Attention turns to biking and running, golf courses open up around the valley, lifts run nearly empty if they run at all, walk on trams at the bird until Memorial Day, backcountry shots that are [...]

I’ve had 3 amazing resort days this past week skiing at Snowbasin with my oldest son McKinley, Park City Mountain Resort yesterday and then today at Deer Valley with Jason Mitchell, my good friend who owns FeedTheHabit.com. But Wednesday morning backcountry skiing, which is the primary content in the video below, is evidence of [...]

After much prodding from my wife I pealed away from the computer for some needed ski touring. The road over Wolf Creek Pass is still open so I took advantage of the easy access and solitude.
The evidence is posted over at FeedTheHabit.com but here is some proof below of a great morning of skiing.  Nothing [...]
