Q & A
How do you like to get down the hill, ski or snowboard?Both
What is your favorite trail?My ideal run is like the ideal companion: Sunny and serene, yet a steep challenge to bring out the best in me. Something to adapt with and grow from.
What is your favorite restaurant?Whistler is like this perfect constellation of my favorite restaurants. They all rock a certain time/place continuum, and so I choose accordingly ;-)
What is your favorite off-mountain activity?Whistler inspires my soul constantly. I love going on little photography adventures, doing some scenic Yoga at LOKA or writing music. There are a lot of cool cats in town to share the vibe with, and Whistler is a hotbed of creative talent. Something about mixing the free-spirited mountain life with freedom of expression = amazing creative people of all types! Always something cool going on :-)
What is your favorite resort?Whistler Blackcomb

Sale Price: $14.99 (58% Off)
Retail Price: $35.95
Offering high elevation performance and yes, even style, the Mountain Hardwear Men's Dome Perignon Beanie is a windproof fleece hat that continues to be a top seller. Made from Polartec Thermal Pro Nailhead fleece on top, this fleece beanie is lined with AirShield Elite to stop cold winds from penetrating and has a stretch panel at the back to create a snug fit. The fleece-lined earband is soft and the entire hat remains breathable to help vent sweat when activity levels increase. Weighing in at less than 3 ounces, this winter hat is versatile enough to pack for backpacking trips during all 4 seasons and is comfy enough to help you catch some ZZZs on a cross-Atlantic flight. Customers say the windproof fabric cuts down on your ability to hear but agree that it is a worthy tradeoff for superior wind protection. From a spring ski tour in the Rockies to a winter walk along the cliffs of Lake Superior, the Mountain Hardwear Dome Perignon Beanie for men is a versatile favorite with a high warmth-to-weight ratio.
