BESTWAY TO PROVE YOU
REALLY DID “HUCK” THAT CLIFF
“The
BULT
helmet has an HD camera
built into the front of it. It’s super-
simple to use and takes great footage.
At the end of the day, you plug your
helmet into your computer, as funny
as that sounds, and upload it all. The
helmet doesn’t weigh much, either,
so you tend to forget it’s even there.
And when you’re through pulling
stunts on the slopes, you can use
your helmet cam to record a bunch
of other relaxing activities—like
jumping out of a plane.”
Trevor Jacob,
national snowboardcross
champion and Olympic hopeful
BEST CULINARY TRIP
AROUND THEWORLD
“Whitewater Ski Resort—near my
home in Nelson, British Columbia—
has a great place called the
FRESH
TRACKS CAFE
. The chef who used to
run it, Shelley Adams, came out with
all these cookbooks of meals she’d
serve there, things like Greek lamb
burgers and Asian-style riso os. She’s
no longer there, but the tradition
remains, with Moroccan food, soul
food, Thai food. It’s all so good, a
Fresh Tracks Café Express food truck
stays open in town in the summer,
when the ski area’s closed.”

BEST PLACE TO GET SNOWED IN
“
ALTA SKI RESORT
in Utah is famous
for its bluebird powder days and some
of the deepest, driest snow on earth.
Head straight for a run called High
Rustler, or as the locals say, ‘High Boy.’
This Alta classic is a long, steep, north-
facing run. If you’re lucky and it has
really snowed a lot, the road through
the canyon up to the ski area will
shut down a er you’re already up the
mountain and no one else can drive
up. That means you’ll find yourself
having a ‘country club’ day with the
mountain all to yourself.”
