bravenet.com | Avalanche! Learn about them. Learn how to
avoid them. Check out the reports for the area you're heading into. |
| If we've skied it, there's likely a link to the downhill area here.
Webcam links too. |
| Around here, we owe a lot to the folks that keep the trails safe and skiable. Read
about the Medicine Bow Nordic Ski Patrol
and the Medicine Bow Nordic Association. |
| Snowmaking - articles from First
Tracks, Smithsonian,
American
Skiing Company And if you're expecting a really cold winter, you can do it yourself in your backyard. |
| Aha! An independent
magazine. These are hard to find nowadays. Go to Freeskier. |
| Yellowstone in Winter -
several members of the club took the pilgrimage to the waters at Old Faithful for some
great Nordic skiing a few years back. It's a wonderland in the winter. And,
best of all, the crowds are gone. |
| Skinet is the website of the folks that print Ski
and Skiing magazines. Has a smattering of articles from
their current issues and some up-to-date industry and racing news. |
| Powder Magazine - this magazine has the best ski
photos of any mainstream mag, period. The website ain't bad either. |
| Breakthrough on Skis - renowned ski
writer Lito Tejada-Flores and some of his guests reflect on skiing. Good reading.
Excellent B&W photos. |
| San Juan Huts - another link to skiing in
southwestern Colorado. This link provided by Sue and Kevin. |
| Done any tele-skiing? Go to telemarktips
for tips, videos, lessons, and more. Thanks to Mark for suggesting this site. |
| REI Outlet. Another hot tip from Mark's
bookmarks file. He suggests that if you see something you like, GET IT! Stuff
moves very quickly. |
| BOOKLIST. We've begun a reading list of ski and outdoor
books. Great for gift-giving. The first few come from
a column provided by Ellen. Please let us know what other books and videos merit
inclusion. |
| From the UK, here's a well-rounded website called ifyouski.com.
Resorts, gear, travel, FIS results, several active bulletin boards, and more.
Thanks to Christer for the link. |
| Can we ever outguess the weather? Probably not! But there's a wealth of
information at snow-forecast.com, as well as
great photos, classifieds, and a nice groups of links. Another great tip from
Christer. |
| Interested in winter
camping? Head for the ultimate location, far above the Arctic Circle, where the
vodka is served in ice glasses. Read about Icehotel
in Smithsonian Magazine. |
| Right in our backyard - have you been to Jax lately? It sure has changed since our
last visit back in our college days, back -- uh -- when was that, anyhow? jaxoutdoor.com |
