Snow Runners
|
 There are two ways to go places in the snow: motorized or not. Other
than sitting it out and snoozing by the fire, most people fall into one
of these two camps when it comes to snow recreation:
1. Snowmobilers
2. Not Snowmobilers
"Not Snowmobilers" includes snowshoers and Nordic skiers, which
includes telemarking, cross-country skiing and skate skiing. All of
them hard work, but exhilarating in their own ways, and very, very
quiet.
Enter the snowmobile: loud, smelly, dangerous, and SO MUCH FUN.
These machines may spew toxins in the air at a startling rate, kill
people from time to time, and raise cane with the Nordic crowd, but
what the hell... LET'S RIDE! Read More |

Gear We Like: Put the Bloom in Your Onion
|
 Let's get practical: If you're going to roast or grill a "bloomin'
onion" by your campfire, you might want some technical help. Here's
an onion cutter we like. Or, you can cut 'em up the old-fashion way:
with a knife. |
Featured Recipe: Bloomin 'Onion

Now you can enjoy your favorite onion treat, right at your campsite! Cut, season, wrap in foil, and roast to a mellow sweetness.
