Life is hard when you live in Washington in the summer. Sometimes you have to get up early in August so that you can climb Mt. Baker, catch the corn cycle just right, and be home in time for dinner and a few beers.

Life is hard in the PNW. Sometimes you are sitting around at noon on a mid July Sunday trying to decide weather to go skiing or fishing... but wait! You can do both. About 20 mins from the car.

While some people have pulled out the kayak, dusted off the mountain bike, or pulled out the golf clubs, the FIS crew has been hard at work harvesting corn and the much more elusive April crop: powder. We were forced to endure mild sunny days and mild blizzards up on ... ...Read more

Too bad the best corn in the world is disappearing so fast.

Our friend Rebecca Byerly was working in Gulmarg making this video for Time Magazine while we were there. The video uses some of Allen's footage, as well as "B-roll" from the b4apres crew, and was edited by the b4apres guys. Enjoy! b4apres is making a movie on Kashmir to be released ... ...Read more

Here is an interview with Brian, Gulmarg's beloved snow safety director. He is quite a guy and has tackled the immense project of developing a snow safety plan for the huge ski resort while training a local ski patrol and maintaining a backcountry advisory.

We are wrapping up our time here in Gulmarg and getting ready to head to Manali for some touring before our unfortunate departure for the real world. We are in a strange Limbo between powder and corn season. The crazy thing about Gulmarg is that it has the same latitude ... ...Read more

Things have changed quite a bit here and a lot of options have opened up. There is now good skiing all the way to the low town. Even though the snow was extremely unstable in the alpine during the storm a combination of things ripping out and a compression of ... ...Read more

Things are rough here right now. The alpine snow is too unstable to ski, and the low elevation is short on cover. The avalanche in the video was bomb triggered inbounds. There have been other slides that sounded louder in the BC but none that we have been able to ... ...Read more

This past few days have been very kind to us. Even though the winds were not kind to many of our shots we still managed to find a few protected spots. Unfortunately the mountains did not get as much snow as the Champlain Valley but its kind of hard to ... ...Read more

Ben and I had a great day in the whites just before Christmas. I also got to play around with an awesome new toy. Click on the picture to see the full TR

Here is a quick POV from yesterday in one of our favorite spots. While the trails out there are icy and the inbounds woods are getting chopped up there is still plenty of untracked left for those willing to work for it.

There have been a few questions lately as to which POV camera I am using I wanted to clear those up and provide a little feedback. I am currently using the Viosport POV1 Wide Angle. More info about the camera can be found here. The Viosport is not the perfect camera. ... ...Read more

Here's the video from the TR if that's all your looking for. Otherwise why don't you read the full TR. As was mentioned over there though, this was one of the most unique days any of us have ever had. While Vermont baked all of November, early December brought monumental ... ...Read more

We worked hard at our favorite Mountain and got some great runs. As Greg said stay tuned for the full TR.

The first run is down star and the second is down goat. Two of the rockier trails, filled right in. Goat was especially fun with a few small airs and enough rocks to keep it interesting. The runs were from Saturday, there was plenty of fun skiing left on Sunday ... ...Read more

I finally broke out the POV on m third day of the year, October 13th. Sorry I didn't go to great lengths to edit it but I'm holding off for a few more hours of grass skiing footage to do the full edit. Watch for the part in the movie ... ...Read more
