In the last week we’ve been from Steamboat to Boulder to Denver to Boulder to Winter Park to Boulder, and tomorrow back to Steamboat.
SIA10 was a mixed bag. Some of it went well, other parts were plain awful. But more on that later, I’ll do a full critique of the show when I’ve had...

Opening day may have been a few days ago, but today was the first day for upper-mountain access, with the Gondola providing access to more than 130 acres. It was another gorgeous blue sky day in the boat, and while we’re definitely hurting for snow, there are some great turns to be made.

Burton Learn To Ride Super Clinic | Days 17 and 18 of 30 Days on the Road
Burton invited me out to Keystone for a couple of days to learn a bit more about their Learn To Ride (LTR) program. The two-day “Super Clinic” was a chance to dig deeper into the LTR program, and get a behind-the-scenes look at where Burton is going with it. During the two-day event a bunch...
Copper Play Day | Day 20 of 30 Days on the Road
Sunday, Nov 15. Took the day to play at Copper. Absolutely gorgeous partly cloudy day, sun breaking through the clouds made for some really cool lighting. Snow was brutal – super patchy ice and soft, so you never know when your edge is going to hold. Park setup is still fun though.
