Road Trip Part I

Guess where this is..? The scenery doesn't change much for 8 hours so your guess is as good as mine

I have always found September to be one of the best months of the year, and it's not just because it happens to be my birthday month. The weather is still nice, kids have gone back to school, tourists stop touring and it seems to be a time when sports are metamorphosing for the better. Yeah the NFL is starting and baseball is really heating up as the playoffs near, but the sports I'm interested in are either kicking off or getting better. The surf starts to pick up. The fishing starts to turn on in the lower 48. Duck and hunting season opens (okay, I'm not exactly a hunter even though I am Alaskan but I definitely eat the meat my friends pass along). And the best part of it all? Ski movie premieres!

Who doesn't love a good sunset?

Since I don't find myself down in South America gorging myself on powder and Argentinian steak the first half of this September, I'm taking a road trip with Cody through Utah, Montana and Wyoming for some camping, fishing, mountain biking and ski movie watching. A fun adventure for sure! So here is part I starting with the long drive across Nevada and hanging with the Salomon posse. Work meetings may sound like an unexciting way to start off an adventure but when you love skiing as much as I do the business side of it all is actually really invigorating. Hopefully before we know it we'll be skiing the great white fluff.

Who doesn't start to do silly things once you've been driving for 6 hours?
