    Closest mountain to a major California city??

    If you want to live in a "real city" try San Francisco. But you can't really have a huge city and easily ski several times a week without driving. How much night life are you looking for? How about midtown Sacramento (at least 1 1/2 hours closer to the mountains than SF)? If you really want...

    Pistols and Randonee

    I have some pistols from last year with Salomon bindings, but I am going on a backcountry trip and want some advice: Should I get randonee bindings (I'm thinking the Fritschi Freeride's) and replace the Salomon's with those, or would I be better off with Alpine trekkers? How is the release on...

    5-0! 5-0!

    my mountain has this thing where you get can be a 'mountain safety volunteer' and get a free season pass. So I call them up, hoping to the pass, (and thinking it's just about skiing around and making sure people don't fall down & get hurt) and they tell me my day will be 'standing next to the...

    Sublux clothing............terrible

    If the sublux hoodies are shrinking, isn't that Hanes' fault? My sublux hoodie says it's made of preshrunk cotton, but I haven't washed it yet so we'll see what happens. I think the guys at sublux are definitely making an effort to make a quality clothing company. I just got an email from...

    The underage drinking problem in the US

    It's my understanding that in europe, or at least france, the driving age is 18.... however, in the united states if we were to copy that and raise the driving age and lower the drinking age kids would probably throw fit (not to mention their parents wouldn't like the idea of legal drinking)...
