Cat’s outta the bag

Tuesday, November 8th, 2011

In one of my last updates I announced some changes, changes like stepping away from Telemark Skier Magazine and creating something new.  The time has come and we are excited to share our plans!

TheLifeUnbound

“The life unbound. Personified by a dynamic and personable couple who met out west only to find that they grew up in the same state back east. Brought together thru a desire to go further and push harder, the telemark turn became their vehicles of self expression and what ultimately brought them together.”

“With an unwavering quest for adventure these two travel through deserts, mountains, and continents to share with each other, and peers their dreams.”

Follow us as we start the season in Utah, follow binding production in Idaho, Avalanche seminars in Colorado and epic skiing wherever the snow happens to fall.  Watch us closely on Facebook at TheLifeUnbound, Twitter at @TheLifeUnbound, and being developed at this very moment, TheLifeUnbound.com.

As the stoke builds…..

Friday, September 2nd, 2011

It’s in the air, it’s in the shops, it’s all around.  Ski season is just around the corner and I am beyond excited.  I find my self playing with skis, memorizing ski dimensions, re reading the new magazines and checking the forecast to see when that first below freezing night is.  Granted, real riding is a long way off, but its the anticipation of hope and the white that is so fun.

Shaun and I also went down to the Causewell/Surface to check out their renovated store front.  Driving down the belt route for the first time in months was strange yet familiar.  We met up with J.T. to view the goods, touch the goods and chat with the boys in the store.

It never gets old seeing new skis and getting to touch them.  Dreams of deep white turns and what each ski would do best course thru the brain.

No trip down to SLC/Cottonwoods would be complete with out a visit to Lone Star Taqueria.  Oh how I have missed the winter and big ass burritos!

San Fran to Tahoe

Saturday, May 8th, 2010

As we continued along the coast after a few amazingly relaxing days in Santa Cruz we got to San Francisco.  We stayed with our friend Liz Cunningham and saw the city as only a local can show you.  We biked to the Golden Gate bridge and I saw the historic icon for the first time, oh and we had an amazing sunset.

After some sightseeing we weaved and pedaled our way through the city to a house party and a few bars- a very cool way to see the city.

Next we were off to Tahoe for some spring skiing and to knock off a few interviews for the movie.  He we are on our way to a morning tour passing Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe.

We met up with the legend himself Mr. Craig Dostie and toured up Sugar Bowl on one of his favorite tours,  “Did the stealth version of The Lake run (1500 up, 2700 down). Surprisingly cold. ’twas counting on corn, but only found that on the second and last pitches. Spotted a brown bear too while traversing to Tressel Peak”.

After a day of skiing Tahoe we were off to Bend to meet up with our good friend Jarl Berg.  It was a loooong day and we didn’t get in until 2am but to see fresh beds and showers, it was worth it.
