amp up your snow days

Though the o -repeated saying
“
Eskimos have a hundred words for
snow” is sadly more fable than fact, there

shoes fromKahtoola—with removable
eight-point trail crampons—make short
work of most of them.

The only vacation yarn more
fib-fraught than the big fish story
is the big snow story. Hook JVC’s
freezeproof, shockproof, Wi-Fi-enabled
Adixxion action camcorder up to your
helmet and you’ll have all the evidence
you need when your doubting-Thomas
friends splu er, “Powder dri s as
high as houses, eh?”

Adventure optics firm Smith spends
more time thinking about fog than

have an etched-in 5X anti-fog inner lens
that resists the great white blindfold
up to four times longer than standard
anti-fog coatings.
