Off Camber is Dead!

To keep reading my drivel, visit The White Room (http://thewhiteroom.typepad.com).

Remember, it's better to be skiing and thinking of God, than sitting in church thinking of skiing.

Hey all. I have not blogged in awhile, and I kind of feel like picking it up again. Why not, you know? I think eventually the demons go away and you just pick up the pieces and start up life again. That's what I'm doing, and I'm excited about it.

Anyway....this site will eventually die. Off Camber feels like another life to me, and in many ways it was. But fundamentally, I think a big difference is that skiing has become my #1 activity, whereas back in the day it was definitely mountain biking. I don't know. Somebody once asked me if, on my last day of my life, I would rather ride a singlespeed at sunset in Fruita on Horsethief Bench, or if I would rather ski down from the top of a snow covered peak with a fresh foot of powder. I guess a few years ago, I chose the skiing side of things, and I still sit there. It could change, and I'll ride more this summer for sure. Stoked to commute to start commuting on the bike too.

But like I said, O.C. will die, a distant memory of a bygone era. However all be writing, and for those who want to read my drivel, you can find it at:

For those who don't know, "The White Room" is a skiing term for being immersed in glorious powder. Hence the name. Check it out, and tell me what you think!

Wave sequence

I thought I'd share this. I'm hesitant to show my photos to people because I feel like it's pretentious. But I thought folks might appreciate these. This was two days ago. I went for this hike on the coast and came to this point far out on a peninsula. And the waves were just HUGE. So I shot this sequence on rapid fire, and I thought it showed the power of nature pretty well. It was cool to see the tourists scurrying too! It makes me happy when nature shows she is stronger than all our human silliness sometimes.
