The edges of my skis slice across the freshly groomed trails while my poles force thrust back propelling my body over and past a steep hill. I continuously repeat this motion hundreds of times, so many that it feels woven into my fabric of a person. The numb fingers, frozen eyelashes and aching muscles from cross-country skiing over the years become routine for how I spend my winters.

was time for us all to try a mountain sport. On the lift, the view was astounding. Among the spring snow, the mountains were crisp and clear. The skis had created smooth pathways on the snow, like vanilla icing. I was too much in awe to say anything to Dallin. Our lift was far away from any noise, and my breaths came out in puffs into the hushed air. Peeking rocks hid beneath the mounds of silent snow, and the trees were bundled in white. I dangled my feet above the empty air, stunned by how…

This next boot had to be one that would have to carry me from the snow and ice into stores or restaurants. While I love being outdoors snowboarding or strapping on snow shoes, there are times when I have to go from the outdoors into a restaurant with my family. Stylish, lightweight and protective are the words of the day for the pair of boots I needed. Thankfully, I found those boots in the Pajar Men's Trooper Snow boot. Actually, if I'm being honest, the wife picked out the style that she…
