New Look Monster Energy After Hours Sending it Into Jack Frost Big Boulder This Saturday Night

*All pictures sourced the @skijbb Instagram page It's not often that you can find a freeski event on the East Coast that offers a cash payout to the winner. Most of those competitions are reserved for the larger resorts out West. This ultimately attracts the big players in the sport, pulling them away from the East with the allure of earning some dough. "Not often," however, does not mean never and that is all about to change this weekend. After a two year hiatus, Monster Energy's After Hours event makes its triumphant return to Jack Frost Big Boulder with a new...

How Snowbasin Resort is Appealing to Craft Beer Loving Skiers This Season

*all photos courtesy of Snowbasin Resort We all know how important that first après-ski beer is to all mountain riders. Part relaxing, part revitalizing, it is certainly the perfect thirst-quenching ending to your day on the mountain. Craft breweries have been on the rise for quite some time now across the country leaving us with an abundance of options when it comes to choosing this perfect beer. Utah is often overlooked when it comes to the craft brewing craze thanks to their funky liquor laws. However, having sampled their goods on multiple occasions, I can honestly say that Utah has...

WinterWonderGrass Lives up to its Billing in Their Inaugural Event at Stratton Mountain

Having covered WinterWonderGrass in the past for other publications, I have always been stoked on their format of combining the mountain setting with craft beer and bluegrass music. The idea that it is held yearly at such iconic locations as Steamboat and Squaw only adds to the allure. So when, this summer, WWG announced that it was coming to Stratton Mountain, a ski resort in southern Vermont that I spend plenty of time at yearly, I knew instantly that I just had to attend. Fast forward to the fall when I met the festival's founder, Scotty Stoughton, at a media event in...

Honestly, as a craft beer loving skier who is a sucker for live music I don't think it gets any better than this. I've been to my fair share of music festivals and there's nothing quite like the ones at ski resorts. Maybe it's that mountain air but everyone just seems a little bit happier than normal. That being said, the second that I found out that WinterWonderGrass was coming to one of my favorite resorts on the East Coast, Stratton, I knew that I needed to be there....

Hop Culture to Throw An 80's Après-Ski Party That Any Craft Beer Lover Would Enjoy

Photo Credit: Hop Culture Magazine Ahhhhh...the 80's. What a great decade for mountain culture? Highlighter bright colors, jackets with shoulder pads or, better yet, a onesie, straight skis the length of picnic tables, pit viper sunglasses, big hair flowing in the wind as you raced down the mountain. Yup, 80's skiing was spectacular and so was the après with its cheap light beer, snow bunnies and classic sweaters. I could go on and on about what defined this generation on the mountain however, I'll spare you an even longer list of details. and just encourage you to watch the movie Hot...
