News and notes from the outdoor industry

Restore the Delta

Posted by ASJ Staff | Dec 2, 2017 | EPiC, Issue 100 |

When Governor Jerry Brown announced his support of Water Fix, the plan to build two 30-mile long tunnels beneath the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, the non-profit group Restore the Delta (RTD) was waiting with hundreds of protestors.

The Centennial Ride

Posted by Kurt Gensheimer | Dec 1, 2017 | Biking, Issue 100, Kurt Gensheimer |

It all started with a photograph. Jeff Barker of El Dorado Hills, California was looking through historical photos on the Center for Sacramento History’s Facebook page when he came across a photograph from 1917 of a bicyclist posing at a sign on Echo Summit above South Lake Tahoe.

Embrace Glacier Point Winter Camping

Posted by ASJ Staff | Dec 1, 2017 | Backcountry Skiing, Cross Country Skiing, Issue 100, Snow Sports |

Experience the thrill of Glacier Point winter camping in Yosemite. Discover breathtaking views and solstice magic on this unforgettable adventure.

Early Season Avalanche Awareness

Posted by Chris Van Leuven | Dec 1, 2017 | Backcountry Skiing, Chris Van Leuven, Issue 100 |

By now most readers have heard of the early October slide on Montana’s Imp Peak that claimed the life of Inge Perkins (23) and, later from suicide, Hayden Kennedy (27).

The Chris Sharma Effect

Posted by Chris Van Leuven | Dec 1, 2017 | Chris Van Leuven, Climbing, Issue 100 |

With Adventure Sports Journal entering its seventeenth year, we got back in touch with our old friend Chris Sharma, a Santa Cruz native once regarded by National Public Radio as the World’s Best Climber.

The Climbers

Posted by ASJ Staff | Dec 1, 2017 | Climbing, Issue 100 |

Coffee was brewing on the stove. From the looks of things, Jim Herrington had stayed up late. His thick brown hair, normally combed and coifed, looked like he’d just eaten an electric eel for breakfast.
