How excited are you for this weekend’s Chili and Beer festival at the CBMR base area? One of Crested Butte’s lesser-known “holidays” that combines beer, chili, and downhilling, this is one of our favorites. We caught up with the chili contest veterans and Dogwood Cocktail Cabin employees Kat Harrington and Grant McFarren from Team Dogwood […]
Going into Teton Gravity Research’s newest film, Way of Life, I was prepared for a letdown. TGR’s last movie was good, but nothing special, and we had just finished Sherpas Cinema’s Into the Mind.

Familiarity with a venue can really boost an athlete’s confidence and aggressiveness (please refer to earlier competitions at CBMR this year for the adults and juniors as evidence). When the IFSA National Series […]
Tom Runcie put together a great edit with his fellow Precise Painting Freeride Team athletes Rob and Sydney Dickinson. It rules!
