Also in this issue: A spotter’s guide to winter wildlife; the local photographers following in legendary Ross Hall’s footsteps; an avalanche primer for backcountry snow travel; an exclusive interview with Melaleuca founder and CEO (and local boy) Frank VanderSloot; and hey, what’s with all the local guys who wear shorts … all winter long?
