Ski Haus Demo Skis for Sale
Ski Haus always has the best selection of demo skis and boards to test during the winter. The best time to buy a demo is now. Demos represent a tremendous value. They are a great way to add a specific ski to your quiver or keep a growing teen in the correct size ski. Take a look at our inventory of Downhill (alpine) skis, Nordic skis (skate, classic & touring), and Telemark skis.

Gear Highlights

Pearl Izumi knee , arm, shoe covers and gloves

It is that time of year when you leave on a morning bike ride your fingers and toes can chill right down to the bone. Maybe it isn't so bad once they go numb since you really don't know how much they hurt... Well, cut it out! Protect those fragile extremities with Pearl Izumi knee warmers, arm warmers, shoe covers, and gloves. These layers are easy to take off once the temps warm up and easy to put back on for long and fast descents. Come September, October, and November don't start those early morning rides without these essential layers. Or ride longer into the evening with the warmers... Don't be fooled. These layers work for casual riders, too. Not just for racers.

Patagonia's
Better Sweater

If there is one lesson we continue to learn, or at least try to learn, is to not rush the seasons. Ok, I'm a slow learner but I can't help it when I feel Fall in the air on a cool August 30th morning. Cool morning temperatures, hard rain, wet leaves on the trail, low hanging clouds, and wind... There is no doubt it's Fall today... To that end today's Gear Highlight is a layer that is perfect between warm and cold. It takes the goose bumps off your skin without overheating, protects just enough without being smothering, and keeps you cozy when the leaves are flying on the wind, the rain hits the windowpane, and you're tempted to fire up the woodburner... Maybe just slip on the Better Sweater instead and smile... Fall is here.

Handpresso Espresso Machine

We've read a couple excellent reviews of this handheld espresso maker and thought it was perfect for our coffee mad staff (and for you, too). All you need is boiling water and you can brew yourself a cafe quality espresso. The high-pressure system uses hand-held pumping to prime the unit, ensuring the correct 16 bar pressure needed to produce the perfect cup of espresso. Light and durable, the Handpresso can easily be taken backpacking, camping, on river trips, on your space shuttle...anywhere you think you might want a shot. The Handpresso uses E.S.E standard pods, which ensures premium quality in every cup, no matter where you are. This also eliminates the mess associated with espresso making when on the go. This tool was made for us (and you, too). Come on in and smell the coffee!

Oboz
Valhalla Light Hikers

Before we get too far ahead of ourselves (see our current Photo of the Week) we thought we should remind ourselves how much great summer weather is left... Fast hikes in the Zirkel, long bike rides, camping out... and on... and on... and on... The Oboz Valhalla is a great shoe that will help you enjoy the last of summer and the coming Fall. Light enough to let you move fast, stiff enough to support a pretty large pack, and cool enough to wear everyday. You can't go wrong. Oboz is a cool little company worthy of your support. For every pair of shoes sold Oboz plants a tree, they are energy efficient by using clean energy and offsets, are deeply involved with the Greater Yellowstone Coalition, and recycle shoes to benefit the Uganda Orphan Fund.
Oboz is a young company that started in 2007 but acts like one that understands its responsibilities to the environment and its customers. Oboz is not here to just take up space and do business but knows its place in the world is to help others. Two thumbs up for Oboz.

Pancakes Pancakes by Eric Carle

As I'm updating our web pages today I'm incredibly hungry. What's on my mind for my empty stomach? Pancakes. But as the boy in Eric Carle's book discovers, you can only reap what you sow. In this age of instant gratification and "what about me," focus, Jack learns all about the ingredients of participation, helpfulness, appreciation, and the rewards of each. Pancakes Pancakes is a great kid's book with a very subtle life lesson to be learned and shared... Just like pancakes!
