Eastern Sierra Report: Powder Day in Bloody Couloir

I was pretty much ready to throw in the towel and give up on winter for the season. With a rapidly melting snow pack and phenomenal dirt for mountain biking, why fight it? I began settling into my summer routine when mother nature sneak attacked with a nice little thunderstorm. My first thought was of how good the mountain biking would be, but as the storm got colder and flakes began falling my mentality instinctively flopped to skiing. I jumped on my computer to research snow reports […]

Kirkwood Worship with Josh Daiek = Kirkwood’s 1st Poster Boy

Josh Daiek is officially Kirkwood’s first ever poster boy. Kirkwood has had some great skiers over the year including Glen Plake and Craig Garbiel, but Kirkwood never supported them like they are doing with Josh. The reality is that it really isn’t Kirkwood persay, but Vail (they bought Kirkwood a bit back) who’s using Josh as the poster boy. Josh deserves it. He was on the full 2013 Freeride […]
