Backcountry Coalition

So a couple of friends and I are obviously backcountry skiers, and we also work in the retail world. There are a lot of people out there that want to get out and go backcountry skiing, but there are also a lot of people out there that do not want to have to sort through a lot of guidebooks and other stuff, so we decided to start a website designated to being a user based online guidebook for backcountry skiers, in an effort to keep people safer as well as provide information so people can have fun trips.

well, we started www.backcountrycoalition.com which is exactly that. It is a way for people to find out some data about the routes you want to go ski, as well as have people post comments and other information about the area. Anyone can sign up, and if you have something to participate, please feel free to do so!

Right now the site is in its infancy, but there is a lot of potential for there to be a lot of good stuff!

Sign up and Enjoy!

Florida Trip.... 2010

Here are a couple of pictures from my last trip to florida!

Melting..... I felt like i was

I was down on the beach in florida this past weekend. I love the ocean, and love the sand. I hate the heat. i wish that I could have been not 93ยบ at all times. I did get some sun, and i went swimming, and it was a good time.

Overall it was a good time, but i was missing out on 3 feet of fresh snow at Vail Pass.... It is kind of a tossup, because i got to hang out with my wonderful girlfriend on the beach, in a fantastic setup.... but it was almost so hot that we didn't want to do anything.

we did eat some sandwiches, play in the ocean, eat some more, dance the night away, and enjoy some fantastic sunsets....

i think i will allow it. Next time though, can someone turn down the heat?
