Journey Into The Backcountry – Step 4

Erin Phillips — Wed, 26 Jan 2011 22:56:51 +0000

Skiing up hill. Yes, you read correctly – skiing up hill. That’s a new thought in my noggin. It kind of goes against everything your body feels and your brain thinks. But that’s what you do in backcountry snowboarding. OK – so not only do I have to learn how to ski, I have to [...]

Journey Into The Backcountry – Step 3

Erin Phillips — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 22:51:01 +0000

The creme of the crop for Backcountry Snowboarding Bindings are the Spark R&D Blaze Snowboard Bindings. The wonder gadgets are the piece that makes the whole splitboard system work. They work for cross country skiing into your location, and are what makes your board stiff enough to be able to ride it once you attach it back together to snowboard down the mountain. These bindings rock - and I now own them (enter in the jumping up down here).

My Journey Into The Backcountry

Erin Phillips — Mon, 03 Jan 2011 14:31:29 +0000

This year I am working on crossing an item of my bucket list - Backcountry Snowboarding. I have lived in Bozeman for over 10 years, and have gotten to snowboard a fair amount each winter since I got here. There's something about snowboarding that melts stress away, makes the world more clear, and overall makes me feel great. I have wanted to get in the backcountry for awhile. Problem is it takes a lot of gear, alot of knowledge and you need to go back there with someone who knows what they are doing.

My First Day Of The Season In Heaven

Erin Phillips — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 12:05:37 +0000

I don't even try to hide it. I work hard everyday to get to live in Montana to play in the Mountains. And for me in the winter that means SNOWBOARDING! I learned how to snowboard as soon as I moved to Bozeman over 10 years ago, and I never get sick of it! This past weekend I got to spend Day 1 of the 2010 - 2011 season in BIG SKY!
