[caption id="attachment_2422" align="aligncenter" width="611"] First Chairs of the 2013/14 Season at Brighton! Follow Ski Utah on Instagram: @SkiUtah[/caption] We record LIVE in the GEAR:30 Lounge, Thursdays from 1:15ish - 2pm-ish. Come down to the shop and hear the magic happen. At the time of yesterday's recoding Brighton Ski Resort announced they were opening for a few hours on Thursday, for the steep price of FREE! Crazy awesome. Today however, both Brighton and Solitude Resorts are now open for the season and passes, I believe, are discounted because not all lifts are running. Visit their respective sites for more info, and ski/ride on! News:

Friday Oct 04, 2013
Let's hope The Shutdown ends sooner than later... GEAR:30 Buyer, Greg Reynolds, finished his first one hundred mile trail run last weekend. Crazy thing is he only had three weeks of preparation. We chat with him to learn how he went from "couch to hundy" in just days. And, no, it's not a recommended training strategy.

OOA Show Episode 137, Kristin Andreassen Live
Thursday Jun 27, 2013
Thursday Jun 27, 2013
Todd to the Top took over the airwaves for this episode so I could "walk the walk" in the Uinta's and test some backpacking gear.
We were fortunate enough to have award-winning songwriter and composer, Kristin Andreassen in studio before her show at the Ogden Nature Center. Andreassen's music is influenced by American traditional music, including the old time string band tunes. She has toured throughout North America, Australia & Europe with her string band Uncle Earl (with Abigail Washburn, Rayna Gellert & KC Groves).
Big thanks and congrats to Todd to the Top on hosting solo his First Ogden Outdoor Adventure Show!
