Skiers\u2014it’s that time again. Here’s how to survive summer.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Unless you just never stop skiing, like our athletes Owen Leeper<\/a> and Doug Evans<\/a>, you’re probably on to whatever you do in the off season. Right now, you dig the warm weather. Ah, that Chaco tan and the smell of sunscreen. The trout are biting, the dirt is tacky, and the water is rising. And the barbecue!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But we’re calling your bluff\u2014we know you’re secretly dying inside. And in two months, when you remember how much the pool sucks and feel yourself melting into the sidewalk on every bike commute, you’ll know it too. You miss skiing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Escape the routine. Keep adventuring.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether it’s in your backyard or on a getaway, adventure is waiting for you. If you’re looking for inspiration, we’ve got you covered. We’re bringing back a few pieces that writers’ around the country put together a few summers ago that highlight some of the best outdoor adventures around the states. Whether you’re here in the Rockies, out West near volcano skiing, or the trees in New England, we’ve got an adventure inspiration guide for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Things to Do in New England This Summer<\/em><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tim Peck writes, “Bitter cold and low snow totals during the East Coast winter breed stoic, hardened skiers driven by their passion for the sport. Then snow season transitions to mud and mosquitoes, which give way to the long, humid summer. These are the days that test us. Because we\u2014obviously\u2014would rather ski icy moguls and frost-nip our toes in search of powder than sit by the proverbial pool. Wouldn\u2019t you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, there are plenty of things to do in New England to distract us from our skiing withdrawal. Read more.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Staffer Matt McDonald says, “PSA: Summer doesn\u2019t have to be a sweaty blur of aloe application. Because, well, it doesn\u2019t have to be summer. Ski resorts in the Southern Hemisphere are opening, and a few of them have already measured storm snow in feet. Down there, June means eager opening days just like November has since you were five.” Read more.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And while you’re at it: Fantasize about gear.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Read our brand-by-brand previews<\/a>, along with 2024 gear reviews, and more information on the incoming boot revolution. Have you heard of BOA<\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not to mention, summer is an excellent time to buy skis from Powder7. Inventory grows daily, and prices hold steady at their lowest levels of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
