Snow Crash

The winter sport is snowmobiling and you do need a lot gear to protect you. Eye protection is essential and may include a helmet visor, goggles, and sunglasses. They protect the eyes from tree limbs, snow and ice kicked up from other snowmobiles, flying debris, as well as protect your eyes from watering from the wind and cold. Face masks can be important to have on very cold days to prevent frostbite. Your gloves should repel water and wind to help keep your hands warm. Fleece or wool glove

I heard a soft whooshing sound as my skis slid across the soft powdered snow, which glistened in the winter sun. I felt practically no wind and it was the perfect temperature to prevent both slush, all in all the conditions were perfect for a day of skiing with my family. I was accompanied by my mom, uncle, and about 8 cousins. We had all woken up at the crack of dawn and began the hour and a half journey to Mount Sunapee, which for us is the prime skiing location. About eight at the time i had only

It was February sixteenth, I was in sixth grade and I had gotten a flyer for the annual school ski trip. More excited than ever I took it home and put it on the fridge so my mom and dad would see it when they got home from work. Twenty minutes after they got home they hadn't said anything, so I casually took it off the fridge and placed it on the couch between my parents in the back room. My mom looked at me with a tired sigh and asked what is was. I happily told her that it was an application form

Imagine riding down a dirt hill on a bike flying through tight corners and hitting dirt jumps and then imagine doing the same thing but in the snow on a board.

Afterwards we got in the truck it was right around 7:30pm , there was little to no snow on the ground when we left kinda sad it being january at the time and we couldn't even walk in 1 inch of snow at our house. after we left we, not even 20 minutes away had fallen asleep. I remember waking up going down a road pulling up to a gas station at around 10:00pm i looked out the window and saw mounds of snow in the parking lot, also snow falling

insurance checked, and try on several pairs of ski boots and skis until the fit is right. We have to do that for fifteen people. It’s awful, but worth the wait as we head to the mountain. We finally arrive at the mountain. We trudge through the snow in our awkward ski boots, stop near the lift to clip on our skis and get into line. We are given a brief run through of how to get on the lift as we scoot forward to a line, being careful to not

Another benefit is that salt is very cost effective and a very safe de-icer for drivers because it prevents car accident and fatalities. The negative effects of road salt is that it damages the vehicle itself because the water from the snow and ice (precipitation) put the oxygen and carbon dioxide in interaction with the car parts. Additionally, when the free-floating ions in contact with road salt it would increase the formation of iron oxide (Rust). Since Rust is a layer of Iron (III)

corner is coming up in my yard, trying to push myself to the limits, I take the corner as fast as I ever have leaning hard to one side of the snowmobile trying to ensure that it wouldn’t tip.

Tearing my M.C.L Swish, tumble tumble, crash. I could just tell by the way I fell that something was wrong. Very wong. But I decided to just keep going even though it hurt. I was at the Jackson Hole ski mountain and was on the Rendezvous bowl with the Jackson Hole ski and snowboard team. I was not being very conscious or careful of my actions, but my torn M.C.L was also a mixture of the fact that it was the snowiest, iciest, slick day I have ever been skiing. I was trying to race down the
