Stomping Grounds:
I frolic everywhere and anywhere in the beautiful Wasatch mountains: Snowbird, Brighton, Alta - or hiking in the backcountry are my favorites. -
Bio:
When my alarm goes off at 4am and I am comfy in my bed - you know what gets me out of bed, besides the DEEEEP snow I am about to go play in? It's the mystery of the day. The mystery of the mountains. I love it. It's like a mental chess game against the mountains. You exercise your patience and perception in the elements, do it correctly, and the mountains become your good friend. Nothing like hiking in the dark up a mountain and sitting pretty on top of a line when the sunrises. STOKED

Julian Carr's Day Tour in the Wasatch
Created December 8, 2009
I spend countless backcountry days in the Wastach. This is my standard set up for being in the backcountry for, typically, 6 to 10 hours. When I'm back there, I need to rely on my standard ski set-up, I don't want any compromise in my bindings or boots, so I don't go with a Fritschi set-up. And I like to select gear as light as possible - from my skis to to my helmet.

Suunto t6d - Julian Carr
Suunto T6D Heart Rate Monitor with Dual Comfort Belt
October 28, 2010
This video shows me checking my Suunto for heart rate before I drop into my first ski day of the year for 2010! Mt. Baldy Alta, Main Chute. I hiked up 2,000+ vert, and most importanly.. skied 2,000+ feet down!
My work out summary can be viewed on movescount.com: http://www.movescount.com/members/juliancarr
My average HR was 136. Over 2,000 calories used. From parking lot, hike, ski, back to car, it was 2 hours 48 minutes. Plus the altimeter in the watch also keeps tabs on total time hiking up, how many feet, idle time, and descent info. Plus it graphs it all amongst everything else!
This watch comes with software to download each workout automatically into movescount.com - it graphs your data, and helps you acheive your exercise goals.
I have been using my t6d for 2 months now, it is fun learning about the efficiencies/inneffincies of my body. I have had a great time training with the aide of this watch, knowing what my training effect is, and where my heart rate sits at, helps me pinpoint exactly what my body needs work out to work out. I am approaching the best shape of my life, and I know part of the reason is this watch! Crazy!
Besides, before this watch, I didn't even know what training effect, oxygen consumption, respiratory rate, energy consumption, and excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) even meant!
I love this watch!

Atomic Bent Chetler Ski
August 29, 2010
A bit stiffer in the tail than its contemporaries, they act more like an aggressive big mountain ski, yet they are very playful as well in the mini-golf. The BentChetlers float the fluff, bulldoze the crud, stomp the airs, and roy the groomers... Truly a remarkable ski.

The artwork is on both sides of the tag, so you can rock the beanie with or without cuff. 2 styles, one to shred, one to kick it with.

I've become a big fan of listening to music on the recruits when I ski. You can wear them over your goggles VS wearing your goggles over the headphones.

You can pull the headphones easily to the side to hear people or when you are skiing, if you prefer to hear the snow instead of the music, like me.
