The e-bike arms race is officially in full swing, and Euybike is throwing a heavy-weight punch with the K6 Pro Max. This is our 6th time working with the brand, and we’ve watched them evolve from entry-level commuters to building what I can only describe as “two-wheeled tanks.” After pushing this bike to its limits on […]
As a professional athlete and someone whose career relies on being able to “TETON Test” outdoor gear in some of the harshest environments on earth, my body is my most important piece of equipment. Red light therapy (RLT) hasn’t just been a trend for me; it’s been a cornerstone of my healing routine for years. […]
VERO Watch Company is on a serious roll. After putting the VERO Smokey ‘44 Field Watch and the Smokey Bear 80th Anniversary Edition through the ringer here in Jackson Hole, we’ve become genuine fans of the brand’s ability to blend iconic partnerships with high-end watch performance. Their latest release, the VERO x Realtree Tide Tracker Midnight Edition, takes that […]
I last put the Saris SuperClamp through the ringer back in 2019. It was a solid performer then, but as our gear has evolved—getting heavier, more technical, and more expensive—we needed to see if the new Saris SuperClamp G4 could keep up. We spent the last few weeks in Jackson Hole transitioning from our 2027 snowboard tests to […]
If you’ve spent any significant time in the backcountry, you’re likely familiar with the old-school Platypus bottles—the original kings of packability. However, the game has evolved. During our recent technical audits in the Tetons, we’ve been puting the Katadyn BeFree Filter paired with the HydraPak 1L (32 fl oz) SoftFlask to the test. From fast-moving alpine streams and local […]
The 2027 Ride Vantum Snowboard is designed to bridge the gap between the radical “Pig” series and a more traditional, high-performance all-mountain shape in the Ride Snowboards lineup. I put an early-release 157cm Vantum through its paces at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort during our annual TETON Tested board test. From late-season spring park laps to the […]
E-bikes have fundamentally changed how we access the mountains, but they have also exposed a massive weakness in traditional gear: weight. In the Teton backcountry—where a “quick ride” often involves miles of washboard dirt roads and high-speed mountain passes—a standard bike rack simply won’t cut it. We’ve seen too many $5,000 electric bikes bouncing precariously off […]
Loading the Elevenlabs Text to Speech AudioNative Player… In Jackson Hole, we don’t just “go outside.” We survive it. With winter temps routinely hitting 0°F, a standard stadium blanket is about as useful as a screen door on a submarine. If you’re a coach, a parent on the bleachers, or a photographer waiting for the […]
In Jackson Hole, our readers don’t buy gear because it’s “cheap.” With an average household income north of $400k, the Mountain Weekly News audience buys gear because it performs. We value efficiency, technical specs, and the “insider” knowledge that allows us to spot a disruptor before the rest of the world catches on. Lately, I’ve been […]
Loading the Elevenlabs Text to Speech AudioNative Player… For decades, the American ski industry has sold us a dream: a sanitized, high-speed, “Disneyland” version of the wilderness. We are told that with a $2,000 pass and a $200 helmet, the mountains are a playground where risk is managed by corporate protocols and groomed to perfection. […]
