Not counting their warm-up residency at Sweetwater Music Hall, the Wolf Bros were six shows deep into their third tour as a band, which Weir had dreamed—quite literally—up two years prior. “There’s something new going on,” said Was, the trio’s bassist, as well as legendary producer, head of jazz label Blue Note Records, and owner of a slew of other rockstar titles. “It’s really cool. We’ve hit another level of communication with each other.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e1f5d63f2378c1701ae5876/19b5f8c9-7f77-4ffb-81d5-3b1792b1df8c/191914b04ae5da4fd7e9b4fef0d60e0bj.jpeg Work - Writing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e1f5d63f2378c1701ae5876/5ec7efeb-4a4e-42e1-a45c-744cfc3838d1/TGRurban-2095.jpeg Work - Writing - How To Manufacture Winter In Minnesota Urban skiing makes cities wild. With the right amount of nerve and just enough manpower, cold concrete becomes a snowy canvas. And if you think twice about that icy set of stairs, imagine the people whose eyes light up at a few inches of snow on pavement and think—it’s time to go skiing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e1f5d63f2378c1701ae5876/1579138268953-TLO2V1DI59ZNWNU4LI5M/isaac-and-jake Work - Writing - A wild life in focus The majority of wildlife photography is just waiting for something to happen. Photographers spend days scouting areas, and years waiting for certain species to come into frame. Other times, opportunities arise seemingly out of thin air, which is exactly what happened to Isaac Spotts and Jake Davis as they drove toward Moose last week. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e1f5d63f2378c1701ae5876/1579138481284-86NCX5LP4YD0X1NGCG1D/crystal.jpg Work - Writing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e1f5d63f2378c1701ae5876/1579138809867-P1QWVV1806EP0DNLTO2N/5e1e5153e5bd1.image.jpg Work - Writing - Eat your veggies and get some sleep: The Motet is returning to the Pink Garter Theatre Ryan Jalbert has slept in his bed only five or six times since the end of October. You could say it has been a busy winter for the Motet guitarist, but really it’s been a busy 15 years. That’s the reality of working as a full-time, touring musician. “We do this every single day,” Jalbert said. “We’ll get off tour and we’ll get home, unpack our suitcases, and then we’ll have our weekly band and production calls. The next day we’re rehearsing again, writing, sending out demos to each other and then hitting the road.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e1f5d63f2378c1701ae5876/1579140049076-MRU9SJPKKZM0PHI2ZVSB/bullshit.jpg Work - Writing - Bullshitting the ski industry for free gear: how much is too much? We all have that one friend who is a complete bullshitter. We watch from the sidelines as they hustle free drinks at the bar, sell their old broken guitar on Craigslist for way more than it’s worth, and get into concerts without a ticket. For me, that person is my roommate, Sarah Anderson. But Sarah’s not interested in cocktails, she’s in the business of scoring free ski gear. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e1f5d63f2378c1701ae5876/1579140987964-3X3K9PCH8HJ3THS9QM3P/5d5707485271f.image.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e1f5d63f2378c1701ae5876/1579140794577-3BSWPJRBD0GH5TABEGII/20140301_Trade-151_0124-copy.jpg Work - Writing - Walker turns allegorical in new works Travis Walker is moving into the allegorical realm. Known for his soft, peaceful landscapes, Walker’s newest work incorporates more symbols and, in many cases, more humor. Building upon his “Thelma and Louise” series from last year, Walker incorporates familiar images from some of his favorite movies — “Star Wars,” “Forrest Gump,” “Dirty Dancing” — into recognizable scenes of the West. The result is, naturally, cinematic. But the power of Walker’s work is not his ability to depict a scene, but rather to set a stage. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e1f5d63f2378c1701ae5876/1579139047950-TEQIHZ29VDK5QTCBYI9N/grand-aspirations Work - Writing - Grand Aspirations Tate MacDowell and Brian McDonnell did everything right. They lived active lifestyles, choosing to settle down in the mountains or close to surf. They exercised and they ate right. From all accounts and appearances the two men were perfectly healthy.

That winter Schwartz was a rookie mogul skier on the U.S. Ski Team. She had finished top 10 in every event she skied on the FIS World Cup Tour, but ultimately a tiebreaker defeated her Olympic dreams. “At the time I wasn’t super bummed about it,” she said. “I was so thankful to even have the opportunity to ski on the World Cup.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e1f5d63f2378c1701ae5876/1579142652145-3Q7SXK122398J72HVSHN/gzxvbqw8s9dodzaq9fk7.jpg Work - Writing - How to find free camping in the US There’s lots of ways to camp—from reserving a highly coveted campsites in national parks to camping on private lands.
