On Tuesday, we woke up groggy from late night editing and rushed to the Salt Lake City airport to find John Symms. A fun day of activities awaited us in Ogden, UT.

We started with a tour of the Salomon North American headquarters with Jenny Naftulin. We gave dog pounds to staffers and poked around the triumphant vaulted ceilinge’d office zones. Good folks, cool building.

Jenny slated our next stop, the Jib Yard indoor rail park in downtown, complete with fun rails and boxes accessed by meat packing rollers and surrounded by snow like carpet. Kids were going OFF when we showed up throwing all sorts of switch up variations as well as fakie ons and tip dips. Symms, Clarke and Keri stepped in to their skis and tinkered with some of the features.

The next stop was the Salomon Center where a myriad of indoor adrenaline sport simulation mechanisms awaited. We chose the Flowrider, an indoor standing wave. Symms forgot his swim trunks but was thankfully comfortable enough to session in his pink undies anyways. Although Indoor Skydiving was slated, we ran out of time as the wait for the air tube was over an hour long. We jumped in the car instead, and murked up to Boise where Keri and I found pull out beds at Symms’ house and Clarke pitched his tent in the yard, one last dress rehearsal for our big Mt Hood camping adventures scheduled to start in Hood tonight.

We just pitched camp at the Trillium Lake, a much less computer friendly spot than the comfortable conventional abodes that we have been frequenting. We will do our best to get stuff up as much as possible. First day of shredding at Mt Hood tomorrow and the whole crew is syked. Direct from the Huckleberry restaurant in Government Camp, OR, Just Passing Thru Crew, out.

Jenny, the Salomom, was our tour guide for the day.

John Symms joined us for some fun as well, adorned with only his blackberry phone, a camera, a string cheese, and a pear. Always prepared.

Keri and I do our best to reenact this glorious mural.

Our first stop was a trip to the newly opened Jib Yard.

Keri and I are ready to go hit the indoor slopes.

The Salomon Center is home to a continuous wave pool, an arcade, a bowling alley, a mini putt course, and an indoor skydiving tube.

Our first adventure in the Salomon Center was a ride on the continuous wave pool. Blake Kimmel lines up a shot.

Symms dressed to impress in pink. Nice looking muscles.

We’re ready to rip.

I wasn’t too great at the surfing, so I stuck to the boogie board.

Rock climbing!

We made the drive to Boise en route to Mt. Hood. We arrived in Boise just in time for a perfect sunset.
