If you're not so sure about Global Warming, take a trip out here to the Pacific Northwest, where we are over 10 inches behind on rain for the water year, and...
That's great news Tom. And I'm glad they are getting some local coverage. <br><br>As I may have noted before, Quokka Sports, who bought MountainZone, is a mess...
Posted a copy of part of the article in the Casper paper in photos. Great write up and picture a full page width on front page of second section of paper....
Well, i don't know if it's good or bad. The city has called state of emergency because there's so much snow they dont' know what to do with it. In my hometown,...
Brrrr is right. At least you don't have to say whether it is F or C since they are the same at -40. Do you ski at all at that temp? If you do what kind of ...
I used to use a Start green, I think it was, or at least their coldest glide wax mixed with graphite wax. You have to scrape it while it is a little warm or it...
Another good tip is to use a good iron. At the high temps needed to iron in the hard waxes like Start green you don't have much room to play with before you ...
I dont' usually ski when it gets really cold. The most might have been -25 degrees C. <br>When it gets cold I use a graphite layer first, and then start...
I am taking lessons at my local ski centre. The instructors are great though when I asked what was a good book to use as a resource they were stumped. Can ...
I like this one Fitness Country Skiing. <br><br><a href=http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0880116528/qid=981517053/sr=1-1/ref=sc_b_1/107-8852041-9232502...
Jason - If you are skating - a book by Einar Svenson is a bit technical but the best I've read if you want to look smooth as glass on your skis.<br>It called...
Hi there.I've just joined this club.I'm a cross country ski fan from the UK - do a little bit myself but not often here in London!I go somewhere in Western ...
Getting more snow today - about 18" so far and still snowing. See pic of Rode. We have 3 golden retrievers - Birkie Bear, Rode , and Toko and they are all true...
Hi Wes<br><br> I spent a winter in Hammersmith and Little Venice, nice place if only the sun would come out. Now, winters are spent in northwestern Ontario....
-20f this morning at 8am but the trails were freshly groomed and the classic skiing was great.<br>I frose my nose several years ago in a race and have trouble...
I just got back from my second most dissapointing skiing episode. in Rochester NY, we have 6 inchs and its too wet to ski in, ohh well right!<br>Happy trails...
Vann - thanks - do you have any trouble breathing with it on - especially when you are working hard like going up a steep hill? I've tried several different ...
What I noticed was that in the cold it didn't bother me, but if I warmed up I wanted it off my face. It is easy to pull the face cover down under your chin. I...
I have to admit, out loud (again?) I really envy you guys with all the cold weather and snow. I live in Oregon, and this year is the driest it has been in a...
Snowleopard - Looks bleak there. Hope it turns out better than you predict. We have more snow than we need - wish I could send you enough to ski on. NOTE - If...
Snowleopard, Van, MBG and all - they are still looking for certain volunteers. I am volunteering for the nordic races and if you have the time it should be a ...
Tom - That sounds like a great deal!!! Where do I go/call to volunteer? I would have no problem doing this, especially as I am broke! Post or e-mail me:...
