  1. Sorry if this has already been posted. http://www.backcountrymagazine.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=308&Itemid=1
  2. Read through the discussions below each the workouts. That is really what makes this site interesting. I think you'll find Mtn Athlete is not just a CF or Gym Jones knock off but a gym where they seems to be pulling from many fitness philosphies with the goal of training people who spend a significant amount of time climbing, skiing etc. Below 2 good examples.... http://mtnathlete.com/id128.html http://mtnathlete.com/id126.html

  4. Eileen, Did you see any tracks? We are wondering how high Kevin may have gone. Thanks
  5. Were you out skiing or climbing Mt. Baker this weekend? We have a friend who is overdue. He has red hair, was most likely skiing solo, and wearing either a red or green jacket. If you have any information please call the Whatcom County Sheriffs Office (911). Thanks Note: From skagitqueen

  7. Powderwhore is proud to present their 3rd telemark ski movie PW07. We will be in Bellingham on Sun. Oct. 14th at 7p.m. at Boundary Bay Brewery. It will be $10 at the door. $1 raffle tickets will be available with the proceeds benefiting the Alpine Safety Awareness Program (www.alpinesafety.org). Check out http://www.powderwhore.com to see trailer or check tour schedule. Thank You. PW07 Powderwhore Productions Review by Mitch Weber of Telemarktips.com October 1, 2007- For months we have been hearing from the Powderwhores that PW07 would have a different groove then the Utah-based crew's previous Wasatch-centric productions. A very late start to winter in their home mountains forced the Powderwhores to hit the road. "We got into February and realized we had no movie," Noah Howell told us in a recent interview, "so we did what everybody else was doing and headed north." As it turns out, we all probably owe our brothers and sisters in the Wastach a debt of gratitude... you could say that they mostly took one for the team last winter as their homegrown Powderwhores were finally forced out of their nest... it's clear that their loss was our gain: PW07 is a masterpiece on many levels, but none more for the way that the film unselfconsciously documents the exciting state of the sport of telemark skiing, here at the latter part of the first decade of the 21st century. This probably would not have happened if Utah had not failed to go off early last season. Wonderfully paced and without apparently trying, PW07 takes the viewer on a ride which covers the main elements of freeheel skiing as it has evolved in the modern era. Technique is well represented by some of the strongest and most talented tele skiers ever captured on film, including young phenom Nick Devore, who made history last year at the alpine world's premier big-mountain competition, the US Freeskiing Championships at Snowbird. Devore turned heads as the first tele skier ever to make the finals, while also finishing 18th out of a field of 150 of the world's top freeskiing athletes.
