Repod-It!

On today's episode, we continue our Featured Author series with Beth Jusino. Beth is an award-winning writer and an unlikely pilgrim and outdoor enthusiast. Christine Reed joins as a co-host for this series, and we chat with Beth about her memoir of her experience on the Camino de Santiago. Check out Beth's website at www.caminotimestwo.com. 

Allison Schoening joins the podcast to share about her experience on Mount Rainier. Their summit bid was cut short by inclement weather, but we discuss with her how meaningful a trip can still be, even if the initial Point A to Point B goal was not exactly accomplished.

Our second Featured Author is Johanna Garton, who wrote about the Mountain Life of Christine Boskoff. Boskoff was an extraordinarily accomplished climber who went missing in 2006. We have our first featured author in this series, Christine Reed co-hosting today. Tune in to hear all about Johanna's experience writing about a legend in the mountaineering community, and why she felt it was a story she needed to share.

Our good friend Matt White is a snowsports rep and certified instructor at Sun Valley in Idaho. He shares about his experience growing up skiing in the Michigan area, and how he ended up in his position at Sun Valley. We also hear a few stories about how Matt and Giles met, and started skiing together. Tune in!

In this new Repod-It! Feature Series, we are taking a look at some outdoor authors who have recently released new books. We start by chatting with Christine Reed. Christine wrote "Alone in Wonderland" about her experience hiking the Wonderland Trail. She goes on this journey alone, and tells an extremely compelling story about growth, determination, and learning about oneself.

On today's episode of Childhood Ski Stories on the Repod-It! podcast, Giles and Brian have a chat with a good friend of theirs from high school, Dan Isaza. On last week's episode, Giles made some bold claims about Dan's skiing ability. We address that here as well as let Dan fill us in how he got into skiing and ski racing.

In this episode, co-hosts Giles and Brian jump into some of their most memorable moments from getting into skiing as kids! We will be doing more of these with other friends and family, just to hear how people got introduced to the sport, and some of the special things that come along with it.

In this episode of Repod-It! Brian and his buddy Giles sit down to talk about skiing in the Pacific Northwest, and what has happened to the mountains and their communities since their ownership changes in the mid 2010s.

We are thrilled to bring you guys the highlight reel for 2021! In this episode, we go back and listen to a couple of our favorite moments from the Repod-It! podcast this year. We revisit our conversations with Conrad Anker, Kelli Jones, Mason Gravley, Carrie Hoffman, and Steven Reinhold. Please check out our feed if you want to listen to any of their full length episodes!

In this first episode of our Re-Imagined gear stories, we chat with each member of the Rerouted VP Team. Mary Eden, Samantha Brown, and Chris Wilsey spoke on their podcast of some pieces of family gear, and Mary specifically spoke about the set of cams that were loaned to her by a mentor, and how that shaped her climbing experience.
