Winter has come and gone but bike season has happily arrived to save my sanity from boredom and help me get my daily mountain ‘fix’.

Gear Review: Outdoor Research RadiantX Gloves

This past season, I had the opportunity to test the Outdoor Research RadiantX gloves. In my opinion, gloves are often an afterthought to more prominent layers like jackets and pants.

Gear Review: 2021-2022 WNDR Alpine Vital 100

Last season, I had the pleasure of testing the 2020-2021 WNDR Alpine Vital 100 Camber ski. That was among my favorite skis that I tested last season; so much so that I came back for more this season.
