I had the chance to drive a 2012 Suzuki Kizashi Sport GTS AWD for a week. As any self-respecting snow blogger, I took the opportunity to take it…

If you missed this, EpicMix has announced a special offer that allows you to purchase 20 of your high-resolution photos for only $19.80. Regularly the photos are $19.95 each so this is a great deal for those that held out.

Saturday was a great day to be on the mountain: perfect temperatures, not too crowded, and some decent “early season” conditions. Rachel and I headed up to Beaver Creek early in the morning and hopped on one of the first chairs at Centennial (#6). When we got to the top we grabbed a quick EpicMix…
Rose Bowl is open at Beaver Creek today!
I never thought about how easy or hard it may be to get to Colorado’s resorts. Having lived here my whole life I didn’t appreciate what a hassle it might be (used to be) to coordinate going from door to door. Here’s how you can get to the various Colorado ski areas and resorts: Denver…
