Whitefish Bike Retreat—Repeat

2 weeks ago | outthereoutdoors.com | Ammi Midstokke

By Ammi Midstokke Cover photo courtesy of Ammi MidstokkeSometime around a decade ago, recovering from a divorce in which I lost everything but my kid and my bike (the stuff that matters), I found myself at the Whitefish Bike Retreat in Montana on one of my first and few breaks from parenting. Back then, it was just the lodge, owned and operated by legend Cricket Butler, who let me stay there for free, sent me out with a bike guide, and subsequently became a friend.

By Aaron Theisen Cover photo courtesy of Wheel SportThere’s a new way to ride the slopes this season. SNO-GO ski bikes, also known as ski bikes or snow bikes, mimic the motions of advanced skiers but are easy as riding a bike. SNO-GO ski bikes allow riders of all ages and abilities to experience the euphoria of effortlessly gliding down a snow-covered slope.

Feb 27, 2025 | outthereoutdoors.com | Holly Weiler

Learning to Ski as an Adult at 49 Degrees North Mountain Resort Near Chewelah, WA

Jan 16, 2025 | outthereoutdoors.com | Lisa Laughlin

It’s never too late no matter how old you are and there’s no better time than now to learn to ski or snowboard. Two of our writers went out on their own paths this season in pursuit of doing just that, and, in the process, gained insight and experience into the cult of snow-sliding fanatics. Working for this magazine, I’d long been inundated with notions of “the stoke.” I’d googled ski terms and jargon, sometimes without answer. I’d even found myself amongst skiers watching Warren Miller ski films.

It’s never too late no matter how old you are and there’s no better time than now to learn to ski or snowboard. Two of our writers went out on their own paths this season in pursuit of doing just that, and, in the process, gained insight and experience into the cult of snow-sliding fanatics. It’s hard for someone in North Idaho to admit, but I gave up on Ski Hill Life a couple of seasons ago. It was not for lack of effort or investment in all things ski-related.
Hike of the Month: Frater Lake SnoPark

Jan 13, 2025 | outthereoutdoors.com | Holly Weiler

Frater Lake SnoPark is a day-use only trail system maintained for winter access via the SnoPark system (permit required) and easily accessible from Highway 20 just west of Tiger/east of Colville. The main trail system consists of 16 kilometers of trails that are groomed for Nordic ski access as conditions allow. Since this SnoPark sits at 3,180’ elevation, sometimes there is not sufficient snow to allow for grooming.

Mountain Khakis Mountain Pant

Dec 9, 2024 | outthereoutdoors.com | Derrick Knowles

These organic cotton pants with a bit of stretch provide the perfect balance between comfort and timeless good looks. The durable construction means they’ll stand up to years of outdoor adventures and everyday use. I love the deep hand pockets and addition of a zippered security pocket. I can wear them and feel equally at home out walking a trail or sitting down for dinner at a nice restaurant. MSRP: $90. Mountainkhakis.com
