NorthFace Mountain Sneaker
2010 Edition of the NorthFace Mountain Sneaker.
I bought these at Sierra Trading Outlet August 2011 - yep, I'm cheap and look for the sales!
First impression - COMFORTABLE! These are going to replace my Nike ACG's and will be more of my day-to-day work shoe and the Teva's I just purchased will be my in-the-dirt work shoes.

Melissa Breitenfeldt - The Sharpie Judge
Because I am a Sharpie fan!...
Victory Motorcycles graphics designer Melissa Breitenfeldt created the Sharpie Judge for the 2012 Australian Motorcycle Expo. Using a 2013 Victory Judge as her canvas, she used sharpie markers to create a unique paint scheme centered around justice.

Ascent Douglas Team
Ascent Douglas Team CREATING A CLUSTER OF OUTDOOR EQUIPMENT COMPANIES
The Ascent Douglas Team is rapidly moving forward with plans to bring a contract cut-and-sew manufacturing facility to the Carson Valley. Its potential customers are the large numbers of companies that produce technical soft goods, such as backpacks, bags, tents, and the like for outdoor enthusiasts. Very few of those companies actually produce their own products, instead outsourcing their manufacturing. This often also means offshoring that work to Asia. Frequently, the projected cost savings from offshoring do not materialize and these companies are now looking for manufacturing facilities closer to home.

About Ascent Douglas Team:
Douglas County’s “Ascent Douglas County” initiative has the planned intention of stimulating economic vitality in the county and marketing it as the preferred site for company relocations within the “Outdoor Recreation and Lifestyle” manufacturers’ arena.
