Attention! Attention! The Shred Til You’re Dead Rail Jam has been rescheduled to take place on Saturday, November 3rd…
Crawling out of the grave is the 8th Annual Shred Til You’re Dead Contest at Buckhill. Last year’s S.T.Y.D. comp was great, and this year it’ll be even better.
Lightweight multi-functional shoe, perfect for hiking and light running in any condition.
I got the Columbia Wallawalla 2 Mid Hiking Shoes last month and have been wearing them everyday on since. Soon after picking up a pair of th Wallawallas I left for Alaska to hike around Ketchikan. Ketchikan, AK gets some serious rain, approximately 14ft/year (yeah I said 14 feet of rain per year). These boots have held up exceptionally well.
There is no doubt the boots have gotten wet on the inside. When they do however they dry rapidly. Not to mention they were seemingly broken-in as soon as I slipped them on, the ankle support was what I was looking for while carrying a hefty pack, and they are comfortable enough to wear like running shoes. I’ve been wearing them as casual shoes around Ketchikan and even on my city jogs.
Yeah, I’ve been jogging in my Wallawallas when not on the hiking trail. They’re light enough, and all you have to do to convert them is drop them down a couple eyelets.
Just saying from my experience, the Wallawalla Hike Shoes ares ready for excursions of all types.
Features of the Columbia Wallawalla:
- UPPER: Combination suede leather, textile and synthetic upper. .
- Multi-density Techlite MIDSOLE: Under foot for exceptional cushioning and support.
- Omni-Grip OUTSOLE: non-marking outsole designed for a variety of trail surfaces.

The Late rapper, author and teacher Eyedea (Mike Larson) had a little known grunge band in Minneapolis that I was lucky enough to have the privilege of seeing live many times. Needless to say this is some of the best throwback 90′s grunge rock on the planet all while being 100% original. Enjoy.

The target launch for Red Bulls Stratos Mission is now set for 6am MDT on October 9! Watch it LIVE at redbullstratos.com.
Felix Baumgartener is pretty much a crazy Austrian with a death wish and a butt load of money behind him. Now I know that breaking the sound barrier with your own body sounds cool… and free falling back to Earth from 120,000 ft or 23 miles, sounds even more bad ass… But, what is it all for? I mean there is a pretty good chance the guy could freaking die! Live on the web!? That is where my brain kicks in and just says “Dude don’t over think it, it’s freaking rad, just got with it.” So since I occasionally listen to what my brain has to say, I’m going to tune in on October 8th to http://redbullstratos.com/ and watch this crazy person make history live and hope that he survives this insane freefall back into Earth. -”As no one has successfully jumped from this height before, it’s uncertain what the highest supersonic freefall in history will look or feel like”- RedBull Stratos.

Nestled in the entryway of Craig’s Prototype Facility is a place of breathtaking history – the Burton Snowboards Museum. If there is one place I’d like to spend more time it’d be there. Sure anyone can google images of vintage snowboards and find an unending supply of pictures, but to breath the historic air of Jake Burton and his empire is something magical. Read More
The 2012 Hot Dawgs and Handrails (HDHR) was a step beyond that of past events 9 years. The features were massive and the riding was insane. Sure tons of people got broke off but in the end good times and vibes were flowing throughout Bear Mountain. Read More
