Kinda like the explain your icon thread.  If you have a username that isn't obvious or has an interesting story behind it, post it here.

Mine is because of lake effect snow from Lake Superior, which make my area get more snow than most of Minnesota.

...because the Selkirks are easily one of the most badass mountain ranges of the Rockies.

Think about it, you've got

Schweitzer Mountain Resort, Sandpoint, ID
Selkirk Powder Company Cat Skiing, Sandpoint, ID
Revelstoke Mountain Resort, Revelstoke, B.C.
Selkirk Tangiers Heli-Skiing, Revelstoke, B.C.
Whitewater Ski Area, Castlegar, B.C.
Canadian Mountain Holidays Heli-Skiing, B.C.
Mike Wiegele Heli-Skiing, B.C.
Selkirk Wilderness Skiing, B.C.

...the list goes on and on. It really should be one of the Meccas of skiing.

Despite popular belief I am not in fact a 40 year old school teacher that smokes a ton of weed. I made this name at the end of my season of ski instructing (teacher) and I ski at Baker (mtbaker).
