the recipe

Ingrid Backstrom tore her patellar tendon while four months pregnant with her second kiddo. Recovering from an injury with a new baby, she spent last season skiing the mountains in her home state. What’s the recipe for a great winter? As with most things, it’s what you make of it. It’s all in the mix. Film by Anne Cleary.

We heard you need gloves

Occasionally while sitting on one of Mt. Baker's non-high speed fixed grip lifts, you will witness a rider send something or go fully underwater and emerge in a cloud of snow from a distance. or maybe you see someone go for a huge backie off a cheese wedge step-down. Oooh that kid backslapped super hard but he rode it out, I'd count it. Then as you look a little closer, you see a purple jacket, maybe it's teal. You think to yourself, maybe it's just modern manhood, masculinity undone - is that...? I thought it was a dude.
