    Telemark is not dead! It just looks funny.

    Not sure if this is related or not:

    This summer I was in a backcountry ski/climbing store (The Trailhead in Missoula) and they had a basket of random ski movies marked $2 each. Picked up around 10 CD's, that included 4 or 5 PowderWhore movies. I really enjoy them.

    I'd be personally more worried about if there will be snow in 35 years from now... The past few years seem to have been pretty harsh in places...

    probably not. I usually get one trip a year, looks like it will be to Crested Butte to celebrate some 40th birthdays (bunch a whippersnappers!).
