How to Have a Good Time

Dan Woods is one of funniest mofos I’ve come across! This is the blog he just set up to promote his book. The blog and book carry the same title: How to Have a Good Time. Hopefully he will keep writing and amusing us. Don’t be afraid to heckle him if he starts slacking… or for any reason really.

I haven’t read his book yet, but if his cheap ass would send me a copy, I’d get a review of it up.

The Levitation Project Gear

Check out the Base Layers and Balaclavas from The Levitation Project. These pieces are super dank, made from recycled plastic bottles and Cocona fiber… they are the best base layers available.

Thats right! Smith goggles are made from recycled plastic and Smith even has sun glasses that are made from a plant based material! Now we’re getting somewhere

Typical Wissman

This is Will Wissman, but if this were a really typical Wissman shot there would be a camera either around his neck or stuck to his face. Either way though, he likes to smoke American Spirits, which are really bad for him. And he likes to rally his snowmobile, which is really bad for the earth. But Willy isn’t all bad… I mean look at those skis he’s got.

Week days at Snowbird

I love riding the tram when its only half full. Its just so nice. This morning was like that, and even though the vis was tough, the wind had smoothed things out…

Carbon Tax Discussion

I was checking out Backcountry.com’s blog, the goat, last night, and it shared an article from a site called boingboing. The article discussed the paradox that exists between ski resorts and environmentalism. More specifically, the environmental efforts made by Aspen and whether or not they can be considered meaningful considering the amenities offered by such a luxury destination. Here is a link to the article, a substantive discussion also follows the article though the comment board.

What a Luxury Ski Resort is Doing to Solve Climate Change

There are some good points, thought provoking if nothing else.
