    Checking in From Chile - Alex Taran

    Pic #1 - It's not often you're finishing your run and wishing you jumped in the back of a van to drink with friends. Either way I'm pretty lucky to have views like this is my daily life.

    Pic #2 - Sometimes the clouds part and you get serene powder turns.... This wasn't today, it's cloudy and the lower lifts are open... But I'm going to go ski more laps on the bobsled in the trees, act like a 7 year old, and enjoy the hell out of it... Peace!

    Wild Life Episode 6 With Hayden Price

    A dismal snow year has it's up sides. The mountain biking has been all time! Living in Salt Lake City is all about the access. It may be the proximity to the Wasatch range that makes the "Door to Door" missions so appealing. Check out this ride from my house "The Blue Canoe" to the Trax line, Dry Creek and then down the infamous "Bobsled" trail. Filmed all on the Sony Action Cam Mini.

    Nick Martini Checks In From Sheregesh, Russia

    Sheregesh, Russia... After two weeks of straight travel we arrive in Sheregesh, Russia where it has snowed four feet over the past week. By morning, an additional six inches of snow had fallen and the sunrise marked my twenty-fifth birthday. A small Asian man in a taxi van picked us up at our “hotel”. His gold covered teeth were complimented by his high-energy personality. He screams “America!!” at the top of his lungs a dozen times as we pack our nine pairs of skis into the small vehicle. The single lane road leading to the mountain is grid locked...
