The crew over at Gregory is still figuring out their new back yard.
Not quite sure what would be in shape on a recent weekend - the skiing or the climbing - Director of Product Development John Sears and Designer CJ Whittaker loaded both rock and ski gear into the car and headed into the Sierras to see what they could find. They didn’t know if the snow wou

They saw a peak.
Conditions looked good.
They went for it. 
Some hours and little bushwacking later, they knocked off a ski descent of a Sierra classic - 9,735-foot Mt. Tallac.

Said Sears: “It’s not that we weren’t quite sure where we were going, it’s that we don’t know the area at all yet. This is where we ended up.”
