					<description><![CDATA[Snowboarding in Alaska should be on everyone&#8217;s bucket list. The flight up is one of the most scenic, awe-inspiring journeys and the ride down the terrain that Alaska offers is even better. Whether it&#8217;s in-bounds at a resort or in the backcountry &#8211; there&#8217;s truly terrain for all ability levels. I&#8217;ve already done the backcountry snowboarding in Alaska during my Tailgate Alaska stint so I was very content with staying in-bounds just to explore Alyeska Resort on this trip. View from the tram looking over Girdwood I hopped a flight late Friday after the workweek, checked in my snowboard gear, and landed in Anchorage. Just a short drive later, I was arriving at the Alyeska Resort Hotel to start my weekend snowboard trip. I was traveling solo so I was very glad to have the help of the Alyeska staff to show me around the resort over the weekend. Woke up early Saturday to find blue skies, groomed corduroy, and a smile on my face. Top of the chairlift My tour guide around the mountain was Nicole who did a great job telling me about the terrain, snow this year, mountain features and what I had to check out while [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The first day I fell in love with Valdez was when I walked around town and took in the breathtaking harbor in the middle of the peaks that surround the town. The next day I fell more in love when I was standing on the top of my first run at Thompson Pass by myself thinking about how I got there, how my entire riding experience has led to this moment and how it was up to me to make it down. I was in Alaska for 25 days over the past couple weeks, I flew in early to help get ready for Tailgate AK and left a couple days after the event ended. My role with Tailgate AK was to make sure the media and VIP&#8217;s were taken care of for the 12 days of the event. I drove the shuttle with contest winners, pros, photographers, filmers, writers and whoever else jumped in. We had some early mornings, a good amount of late nights and lots of funny moments to add to the occasion. This was my first time at Thompson Pass and I didn&#8217;t push it. I rode stuff that didn&#8217;t scare me other than the thought in [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The past couple days in Alaska have been &#8220;down days&#8221; when the weather comes in and you take a break from the mountains till the snow piles up and the sun comes out. It was a good break and time to figure out the next plan of attack. A couple of the Flow guys mentioned a day of snowcat and I was really happy with my first day with 907 before Tailgate Alaska began so I mentioned all of us heading up for the day with them. Eventually it grew from a couple of us to almost a full cat of people we knew who wanted to spend a day shredding. Plus the weather finally cleared and delivered a perfectly warm bluebird day on the mountain. Our crew for the day comprised of Kevin and Donny from Flow, Joseph from Evo, Peter and Jimmy who are under my wing at Tailgate, Gilly who does everything, pro-snowboarder Kevin Jones and his fiance Danielle, two skiers who I forgot their names but were super nice, Rasmus from Chuckbuddies, Gabe Smith who is competing in the Freeride Championships, the guides (Susan and Ryder) and myself. It was a full snowcat of rad people. [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been an incredible season of firsts. First Baker Banked Slalom, first heli, first backcountry turns in Alaska and now my first cat day of snowboarding. When I first arrived in Valdez, I met Nate from 907 snowcat and decided that a day of cat boarding would be a great way to start the Tailgate AK experience. I ended up joining in with a really great group of snowboarders from Alaska and Sweden. We had seven of us total for the day. 907 Snowcat is running full day snowcat tours for $325 for tailgaters and it guarantees you anywhere from 8 to 13 runs for the day. Heli access you are constrained by weather while snowcats won&#8217;t be. So definitely on a questionable weather day, snowcat will keep you on the mountain during the weather. Plus you get a fun ride up perfect for snacking between runs. The morning started out bluebird and sunny skies so we headed up in the cat to get to Mid Mountain where we&#8217;d be staying above for the day. Our warm-up turns were in Bowl #1 which offered a bit more mellow pitches for getting our powder legs under us. It was really breathtaking [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Earlier this winter I had two options: 1. to stay in California and figure things out or 2. travel the world, live my dreams and figure things out. The decision was pretty easy, I was gonna travel, have fun and do what I wanted. It&#8217;s been everything I&#8217;ve dreamed of and this winter is about to get better. I&#8217;m about to hit the road running (well flying). First stop is California this weekend, then it&#8217;s back to Washington where I&#8217;ll be getting my Avalanche Level I at Mt Baker, then it&#8217;s off to Revelstoke for Tailgate BC and finally Thompson Pass for Tailgate AK. The next couple months will be hard work but an incredible experience. If you haven&#8217;t heard about Tailgate Alaska, all the info is at http://www.tailgatealaska.com/. I&#8217;ll be sharing the experience this spring. Flow Tailgate BC &#8211; March 8-12, 2012 Revelstoke. One simple word with lots of powder in the mind. The first Tailgate BC is heading to Revelstoke next month for a couple days of tailgating, riding and having a good time. I&#8217;ll be driving up to the event and helping out with media.
