					<description><![CDATA[Intended Purpose: Women&#8217;s glove designed for cold weather days and guaranteed to keep you dry with Gore-Tex. Location: I wore these gloves at the SIA On-Snow in Winter Park and throughout most of the winter at Mammoth and June Mountain. Conditions: I used these gloves in very cold temperature days (-20 in Winter Park) and anytime it was snowing at Mammoth or June Mountain. They are meant for cold winter days so I wore them in those conditions. Sizing: I have typical women&#8217;s hands.  I&#8217;m rocking the Verlot&#8217;s in the women&#8217;s medium size. The fit is ideal, the finger length is perfect and the gloves are snug on my hands. Color: I received these gloves in the tan color choice which is really just white and black with the majority of the glove being white. I like the look and design of them, the palm is completely black and there&#8217;s a mix of black/white design on the top of the glove. Features: The Verlot GTX gloves are a waterproof and breathable Gore-Tex glove with the guaranteed to keep you dry promise. The shell and palm is a premium goatskin leather which is really smooth and comfortble to wear. The closure [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Intended Purpose: The Burton Windstopper Hoodie is meant to be lightweight, windproof and breathable.  Plus it&#8217;s warm meaning you stay warm underneath it and it keeps you dryer than you&#8217;d think.  Normally I wouldn&#8217;t review a &#8220;hoodie&#8221; but this isn&#8217;t your average hoodie when it comes with a Gore-Tex name on it. Fit: It&#8217;s an average Burton fit so whatever size you typically wear you&#8217;ll do fine in your average size on this one.  I prefer things a little bigger so I find it not my ideal size for always wearing on the mountain but when I use it as a layer or jacket around town&#8230;the fit works fine. Appearance: I received the windstopper in last year&#8217;s curaco dyed yarn plaid which is just a mix print of blue/brown all over plaid.  I actually wasn&#8217;t a fan of the color at first but ended up completely falling in love with it.  Not sure I could pull off plaid ( i have curves, haha) all the time but eventually i got over it.  The design of the windstopper hoodie is rather simple but it has oversized pockets which are great for colder days keeping your hands in them and for me [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been two weeks since I traveled to the east coast for 48 hours with the Gore-Tex Experience More Blogger Summit and the opportunity to see inside the doors at Gore-Tex.  Coming from a snowboard background, I was clearly in the snowboard bubble when I arrived and found myself learning just how much Gore is involved in many other aspects of intelligence around the world from military to biological to medical.  I remember feeling overwhelmed the first night because of how much information I was taking in, that went above and beyond your typical mm/gm ratings of snowboard outerwear.  However overwhelming the experience was, it was very educating and eye opening. Each day of the Blogger Summit we really went in-depth into Gore-Tex and  Day 2 really opened my eyes on the snowboard side of Gore-Tex for waterproofing and breathability. [singlepic id=6742 w=500 h=375 float=] When I came back from the experience, I read an outsider&#8217;s point of view about the experience and how it offered a look into advertising entering the 21st century. Each of us were invited through their own research and when we talked about it, that they wanted to meet us.  All the bloggers present were very [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I arrived in Philadelphia for the Gore-Tex Experience More Blogger Summit where day 1 was the introduction but day 2 was where the tours went down and it gave a huge amount of insight into the Gore-Tex company and brand.  Our itinerary on Thursday included touring the Gore Testing Facilities, Myth Busters Session, visit to the Gore Outdoor Store and a scavenger hunt in Philadelphia before ending the night with a dinner. The day started early with breakfast before we left our hotel room for the Testing Facilities in Elkton, Maryland and many of us were in 2+ hours of time differences so it was a sluggish morning but we made it. [singlepic id=6648 w=400 h=267 float=] Upon arriving at Gore-Tex we were introduced to Brad Hill who is Gore-Tex&#8217;s snowsports marketing strategist.  I would later find out throughout the day that Gore isn&#8217;t your typical company when it comes to titles/jobs and management. Brad ran us through the Gore Products and I was able to understand the different products and what makes them different.  Definitely an eye opening experience in the presentation and it gave us insight into what Gore strives for, creating long lasting durable products and with [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I left the snowy mountains and headed to the east coast as a guest for Gore-Tex&#8217;s Experience More Blogger Summit.  What exactly is that?  Well Gore-Tex is launching a new community and invited various bloggers from outdoor arenas to come out for a couple days to find out more about the brand and the community.  So yesterday&#8217;s adventure started super early as I woke up at 4am in Steamboat and headed to the airport in town to make my 6am flight to Denver.  Denver received quite a bit of snow yesterday so there was a delay in getting out to Philadelphia but eventually I made it out of the mountains. [singlepic id=6636 w=400 h=300 float=] Upon arrival in Philadelphia, I found myself with a group of other bloggers who were on my flight and we climbed into a shuttle van to make our way to the Gore-Tex facilities. Also from Steamboat is Chris who runs snowboarderguide.com, we had never met until this trip but know of the same people and live in the same town. [singlepic id=6637 w=400 h=300 float=] At the Gore-Tex Center, we were greeted with appetizers and drinks (Ah yes Yuengling!) and we started out tour, [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In early September I received an invite from Gore Tex to attend their Experience More Blogger Summit that they would be hosting in late October and while it meant traveling two weeks in a row it also meant an opportunity I couldn&#8217;t turn down.  The time has come and I am heading east for a short 48 hour visit to Philadelphia, Newark and Elkton to check out what Gore Tex is about.  Our itinerary looks like a lot of fun and includes a tour of the  Gore Testing Facilities with the Rain Room and Comfort Chamber plus an evening in Philadelphia for dinner among other activities.  I&#8217;m especially looking forward to meeting the other bloggers attending the event. [singlepic id=6513 w=500 h=130 float=] This is the first trip that won&#8217;t cost me a dime:  flight, lodging, food, everything is paid for and it gives me the chance to check out a company that many of us choose to be in our outerwear systems.  When I do write about the experience I&#8217;ll make sure to disclose that information but I&#8217;m also attending on behalf of Shayboarder and looking forward to writing about the experience.  Because it is such a short trip [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In the workplace there are two types of people: those with plenty of vacation time saved up and those who have none.  I am the latter, I love counting down till the next vacation, next snowboard trip, next getaway and I use every second of it up as soon as I get it.  I wasn&#8217;t expecting October to be a travel month but two trips came up that I couldn&#8217;t pass on.  My snowboard bag is staying home but they are still very exciting snowboard related trips. Next week I&#8217;ll be flying out to So-Cal to visit spend 3 days visiting some rad companies and people there, then I fly up to Nor-Cal for the weekend where I&#8217;ll be on family time with the exception of the Twitter Giveaway in San Francisco.  Then after California, I come home for two days before flying to Maryland to visit Gore-Tex.  So the next two weeks will be lots of traveling as I go west and east, writing about the adventures on the blog. [singlepic id=6512 w=500 h=344 float=] Shayboarder&#8217;s California Adventure There is a reason why I&#8217;m not doing a snowboard giveaway in So-Cal and it&#8217;s because of time to do it.
