The Chair 2 owners and riders like to hit up Rainier typically mid summer. But Brian was excited for fresh snow and got after it a little sooner than normal. Enjoy!

To My Fellow Females. Have you ever thought about how rad it would be to pee standing up?! To not have to go searching for a bush, and risk showing our behinds to the world? Why don't we get that luxury?! Well, we do now, with this awesome little gadget called the Freshette. Similar items are the GoGirl and the SheeWee.
