You know it’s a great day when you start and end your day with songs from the Robotfood movies…they just do a great job of pumping you up for a day of shred and stoking you out on the end of a great day.  It’s day 140 of the 09-10 season for me, hard to [...]

There are definitely some days that don’t feel as progressive as others and my mind is not in the right place…today was one of those days.  I really wasn’t feeling the mountain but made it up to get in some turns, try something new and hope for the best.  I still have no complaints though [...]

Most of this summer has been early morning breakfast and then heading straight to the mountain for a full day of shredding but then there are days like today where after breakfast at camp, you fall back to sleep for a couple hours before heading to the mountain.  It definitely helps make the day better [...]

We’re already down to the last two sessions before Windells ends…summer has flown by with the amount of fun I’ve been having. The session 6 campers arrived today so it was a perfect day to head up to the slopes to just freeride without either camp operating.  Timberline is a public mountain but the camps [...]

A couple weeks ago, Trevor Jacobs tagged my snowboard with a GKC sticker to which I replied, what’s GKC?  GKC has many explanations but with their invasion of Mt Hood this summer they’ve created a summer edit that gives a good explanation of what Mt Hood is like in the summer. Check out the video [...]

Today was the last on-snow day of session 5 here at Windells Camp and probably the least favorite day for weather since the winds were blowing hard on the mountain making it sunny but cold.  It was a quick day on the mountain, headed up with Izzy’s group, took some laps, had a long lunch [...]
