Greg buys a bus Part 3 - Why should we care? Well, it IS pretty cool. Greg finally got his bus on the road and on a proper adventure touring north to Red Lodge and through Yellowstone. The minibus provided travel and shelter for activities like skateboarding, mountain biking, and skiing all in one short trip. This bus idea seems to have been a pretty solid move.

Everest seems to be done for the season according to Alan Arnette's latest update: "The final large #Everest2014 teams that might have climbed declare the end: Himex and Altitude Junkies."

Will Calton along with fellow Ogden resident and friend, Tom Burton, summited Everest in 2012. Will continues to closely follow the exploits of the world's tallest mountain, the deaths, summits, success stories, and drama. This year is extraordinarily significant as an avalanche swept through the Icefall killing 13 Sherpa men with three more missing. This tragic event may in effect shut the mountain down as many of the Sherpa were part of the high altitude team who set ropes for all those who follow.
Will's personal experience on the mountain is quite remarkable and to have him available to contribute his thoughts on the mountains recent events is a privilege. Thanks Will! And, we would like to send our prayers and thoughts to those who lost loved ones in the avalanche.

Most of the winter Mike Henderson charged the backcountry guiding Dawn Patrol for the Weber State Outdoor Program. Now that spring has sprung, well, 'Hendo' is still skiing, but also helping organize this year's 7th Annual Ogden Climbing Festival. Below is our interview with Mike about #OCF7, but first the deets:
GEAR:30 kicks off the Fest on Thursday, April 10th at 7pm, with a slideshow presentation by adventure photographer Nathan Smith. Check out Nathan's images at Pull Photography.
This year's Fest will introduce an Invitation Only Intercollegiate Boulder Comp at Friday night's Weber Rocks demo. Young Subaru donated a $250 purse for the winning climbers. Friday's demo will also be a great night for families and climbers to come test gear, jump on a rope for the first time, and meet Keynote Speaker, climber and trainer, Obe Carrion.
Saturday is the big Fest day! The action kicks off at 10am in the Ogden Boulder Field with a Red Point Boulder Comp! At noon is lunch sponsored by Red Bull. Clinics for the community begin at 1pm. From upping your climbing game with Obe Carrion's "Next Level" clinic, to Climbing Yoga, a Striders Running Trail Run, Rock Rescue, and Children's Bouldering, there really is something for everyone at Saturday's boulder field events.
Amer Sports will host Obe Carrion's Keynote Presentation at 6:30pm. We'll announce winners of the boulder comps, and give away ridiculous amounts of swag!
The weekend wraps with an after party at GEAR:30, catered by Roosters. Reel Rock 8 will be playing, along with music, chair bouldering, and socializing.

Episode 4 of the Mr. Goodyear's Neighborhood Podcast featured the man who lives Underground with 5 Wives, behind Historic 25 Street, and who once began a war with Idaho, the myth and legend, Steve Conlin.
Yes, the same man who once ran Ogden One Cycling, photographed the Nagano Olympics, and helped finance hundreds of homes in Weber County. Conlin is one interesting cat, and yes, Ogden can claim him as one of its own, Ogden's Own.
Check out the interview below and learn how Steve Conlin taught himself to live life rather than live through others. Huge credit to John Wojciechowski with Striders Running for reaching out to Conlin and booking this awesome guest.

INTERVIEW: Scott Jaime – Colorado Trail FKT (Fastest Known Time)
We had the privilege of interviewing the owner of the Colorado Trail FKT (Fastest Known Time), Scott Jaime, before the Ogden preview of his film. Running The Edge played at Peery's Egyptian Theater to an enthusiastic, nearly sold-out crowd. Would like to thank John Wojciechowski with Striders Running for pitch-hitting for the San Francisco travelin’ co-host Todd to the Top during this episode. INTERVIEW: I'm with the Band
Next, we had a couple musicians back on the Ogden Outdoor Adventure Show! We called this segment, "I'm with the Band." Dan Froerer with Betty Hates Everything, and Austin Cochran from The Last Wednesday chilled with us and chatted about their mini-tour, promoting music in 2014, and preparing for a Spartan Race.
Scott Jaime and John Wojciechowski hung around to chime in with News and Events, and things got weird. You'll have to listen.

From left to right: John W (Striders Running), Austin Cochran (The Last Wednesday), R. Brandon Long (OOA Show Host), Dan Froerer (Betty Hates Everything) Thanks to Todd to the Top, we had a couple musicians back on the Ogden Outdoor Adventure Show. We'll call this little segment, "I'm with the Band." Huge thanks to Dan Froerer with Betty Hates Everything and Austin Cochran from The Last Wednesday for hanging out with us! Also, would like to thank John Wojciechowski with Striders Running for pitch-hitting for the San Francisco travelin' co-host Todd to the Top.
What you hear, here, is the second rendering of the interview. The first version, which was spectacular by the way, is lost in time as someone forgot to push the record button... whoever could that be? So, because of the mistake from yours truly, this is version 2.
Betty Hates Everything and The Last Wednesday are on a little mini-tour. Couldn't get the podcast up early enough to help out much, but if you rush up to Jerome, Idaho right now, you can catch them opening for Crash Kings.

Scott Jaime set the FKT (Fastest Known Time) on the 486 mile Colorado Trail. Matt Trappe documented the amazing feat and the Ogden premier of Running the Edge: The Colorado Trail is Friday, March 27 at Peery's Egyptian Theater.
It was a privilege to have Scott sit down with us in the GEAR:30 lounge to chat about the FKT. Scott covered crew logistics, fueling, pushing past mental barriers, and the importance of balance. We also learned the man may be a better soccer player than trail runner.
Let's all rally around this amazing accomplishment and stuff Peery's Egyptian Theater Friday night!
Running the Edge: THE COLORADO TRAIL - Teaser 2 from Matt Trappe Photography on Vimeo.
Setting a Fastest Known Time on a particular trail seems, from an outsiders perspective, as an unreal experience. Kelly Agnew, GEAR:30 athlete, sponsored by Hammer Nutrition and Klymit, now has two impressive FKT's to his name, and his description of his latest accomplishment is inspiring. We at the shop are proud and thoroughly impressed with Kelly's efforts over the last year, but this season is kicking off with a bang. Stoked for your future, Mr. Agnew.

Skillz Session: 5 Things you Need Before Heading into the Backcountry
Quote of the Week:
“Each new year is a surprise to us. We find that we had virtually forgotten the note of each bird, and when we hear it again, it is remembered like a dream, reminding us of a previous state of existence. How happens it that the associations it awakens are always pleasing, never saddening, reminiscences of our sanest hours. The voice of nature is always encouraging.” -Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862)
Striders Running is celebrating 10 years in business this week! John and Kristen Wojciechowski started Striders in 2004 in Layton, Utah, and have recently opened up a second location in Ogden. Celebrate 10 years in business with Striders. Meet at the Dee Events Center at 8 a.m. to run the Winter Racing Circuit 5k or 10k course. John chats about how the Wojciechowski's signed the lease to Striders before securing their first shoe vendor, expanding to Ogden, the Winter Racing Circuit, running in dirty air, and, yes, his tepid relationship with Eddie Vedder.

Kelly Agnew - Ultra Runner | Follow Kelly's adventure's on his blog: "Slipping Slowly Into Pain" In his own words: Like many people, I began running later in life in an effort to lose the weight that had piled on as a result of my sedentary lifestyle. But unlike a lot of people, I developed a passion for distance running and ultimately, an unstoppable desire to be on the trails and in the mountains. And most importantly, I learned that I had the ability to run great distances, endure significant amounts of pain and to finish these brutal events near the front of the pack. What started out as a routine path to weight loss, turned into my path to competitive ultra running which opened up a whole new world to me.
I have a strong desire to share this sport with other people and to help runners realize their hidden potential. I plan to continue being an active ambassador for the sport, while promoting a healthy awareness of our role as stewards of the trails and mountains that all too often get taken for granted right here in our own back yard. I hope to achieve this through my running, racing and writing, in hopes that I can leave this sport better than I found it.

The annual WSU Outdoor Program Gear Swap is tomorrow!! Bigger and better than ever with more vendors including out-of-state participants with deals on gear that will blow your mind! Daniel Turner in his 7th year at the Outdoor Program is bringing back TGR for their latest film, "Way of Life."
Greg had never run 100 miles, or 50 miles, or even 50K (31 miles), but on somewhat of a whim, his wife signed him up for the Bear 100. You know, to give him a push. Greg had just over three weeks to prepare. He finished. His time, 34 hours and 40 minutes. Hear how he prepared, formed an intelligent finishing strategy, and stuck to his plan.

Let's hope The Shutdown ends sooner than later...
GEAR:30 Buyer, Greg Reynolds, finished his first one hundred mile trail run last weekend. Crazy thing is he only had three weeks of preparation. We chat with him to learn how he went from "couch to hundy" in just days. And, no, it's not a recommended training strategy.

Huge thanks and gratitude to 88.1 Weber FM for allowing the OOA Show to air! "The Move" allows the OOA Show to bring in product reps and athletes who can promote and endorse which is not really allowed when broadcasting on non-profit airwaves.

So, join us live at GEAR:30, Thursday's between 1pm - 2pm-ish.

Todd to the Top took over the airwaves for this episode so I could "walk the walk" in the Uinta's and test some backpacking gear.
We were fortunate enough to have award-winning songwriter and composer, Kristin Andreassen in studio before her show at the Ogden Nature Center. Andreassen's music is influenced by American traditional music, including the old time string band tunes. She has toured throughout North America, Australia & Europe with her string band Uncle Earl (with Abigail Washburn, Rayna Gellert & KC Groves).

Quote of the Week: “The longer and farther I ran, the more I realized that what I was often chasing was a state of mind--a place where worries that seemed monumental melted away, where the beauty and timelessness of the universe, of the present moment, came into sharp focus.” ― Scott Jurek, Eat and Run: My Unlikely Journey to Ultramarathon Greatness
Even when she's in a bad mood, Mother Nature remains beautiful.
Too many news stories this week involving death. We talk about and post these death stories to help others understand when we venture into the wild, it is just that, and to be prepared for anything. A simple day hike, family camping trip, or flat-water paddle session can turn from fun to dangerous in moments. What is most beautiful and alluring about wilderness areas can also be the most dangerous. The ol' Scout motto remains the best advice when courting Mother Nature, "Be Prepared."

Safety in Bear Country: * Maintain a bear-safe campsite * Store food, drinks and scented items securely (in your vehicle, a bear-safe container or a tree — never in your tent) * Dispose of trash in bear-proof dumpsters, if available * Wipe down picnic tables * Burn food off stoves or grills * Pitch tents away from trails in the backcountry * Always sleep inside your tent * Never approach or feed a bear * Report bear sightings to your campground host * Take precautions while hiking
Take Bear Precautions While Hiking: * Stay alert at dawn and dusk, when bears are more active * Go with a group, if possible * Make noise as you travel through dense cover * Stay away from animal carcasses * Store food, trash and scented items (such as sunscreen) in airtight plastic bags * Keep kids in the center of the group

Every sport has it's season. Right now, it's Everest time. By now, most of heard of the "brawl on Everest" which included three prominent alpinists, but we hadn't heard the point of view from the most famous climber involved, Ueli Steck. Outside Magazine posted Ueli's version late last night, "Brawl On Everest: Ueli Steck's Story."
While Alpinist Magazine is waiting on more information before publishing an article about the brawl, Rock & Ice didn't hesitate and posted this piece on Tuesday, "TNB: Mayhem: Crawling, Balling, and Brawling On The Everest Soap Opera"

Climbing and Ogden go together like Sharma and Spain. So, we're thankful for the sixth year in a row, the Weber State University Outdoor Program has organized the Ogden Climbing Festival! This year's fest was the best attended since inception, and we believe GEAR:30 had a little help with that. Besides rockin' the fest as the Title Sponsor, GEAR:30 also helped kick off the weekend with a special Will Calton Presentation: Preparing for and Surviving Everest, complete with sweet schwag and free food and beer from Roosters Brewing Co.
All good things must come to an end, so we're sad this year's climbing festival is over. We're already dreamin' of next year.

You know you're hardcore when you're snowshoes are bright purple. Despite this episode's title, we don't chat too much mountain man news. Instead, we burned a significant amount of the show incorrectly answering Outside Magazine's "Test Your Survival Skills"quiz!
