Alex and I started to make some skate decks with some of our more recent designs, here is just a taste of what we made.

The summer has officially started. Today was day 1 on hill for session  1 here at windells. It took us a while to get on hill but we finally figured out tickets and made it up just as a cloud covered camp. It was nice at the top of palmer but about 200 yards down the hill there was no way to tell where you were. I have no idea what the park looks like and I was there for a long time today.

Robbie, Mike, Alex, and I took the passat offroading up 27 road to watch the sunset last night. It does pretty good on these Oregon backroads! It was a great sunset.

We survived the drive from Minnesota to Oregon. For some reason the trip seemed to go by a lot faster this year than in years past. The first day of driving we clocked 21 hours and 1300 miles ending up right on the Montana/Idaho border. Thats the furthest we’ve ever made it in one day.

Day 2 was a walk in the park, until the end. We tried driving the backway up Lolo pass and about 15 min from our destination we ran into about a foot of snow on the road! That little detour added about 2 extra hours to the end of the trip. We’re all moved in and getting ready for camp to start!

Joe, his brother, and I went out mushroom hunting yesterday and hit the jackpot. Nine Pounds of Morels. We found a spot the probably had close to 100 within 15 feet of eachother. I’ve only seen them like that one other time and that was when Carl and I went years ago. They sure do go great with steak and potatoes!!

On Sunday night I went with Tom to his radio show. Pretty cool to be in the booth and live on the air. I dont think anyone was listening because we didn’t get a call all night. It was a lot smaller room than I had thought. But still its pretty cool.

Went up to Vail on the last day and it was awesome. Rode With a whole bunch of friends and had a great day even though I didn’t win the Breitling Watch. The contest was rigged from the get go anyway. We went up to the top just as the lifts were closing and at the top was one of the largest parties I’ve ever seen. Must have been a couple hundred people up there having a few beers and enjoying the last day.

Tom Naab and I entered the Breitling video contest for Spring back to Vail. We had a lot of fun making it but unfortunately didn’t win. Oh well, it was a lot of fun.

My roomate Jack and I  met up with Josh Severson and Blake Anderson over at Vail a few days ago. I don’t think I’ve ridden with them since we went to Montana senior year of high school. It was my first time riding the back bowls at vail and it was amazing. It must have been waist deep! One of the better Pow days I’ve ever had!!
