Outdoor Retailer Winter Market 2013

Rios Libres fundraiser at KEEN!

Every January the outdoor industry descends on Salt Lake City for four days of new products, new colors and new faces to meet.

Working throughout the show, this dog did not get the most time to wander. With some planning the wandering was pretty focused. The tail always wags as friends are sought out, some that have not been seen for days, months, or years. High fives and smiles were given out like stickers, hugs were saved for those special relationships acquired over the years. New relationships were formed around the show, product was ogled over, and the talk of inversion was overheard everywhere.

With cold temps outside visitors rushed from their hotels to the convention center in the morning. In the evening the walk home had some people stop to check out a rather interesting digital art installation. With the help of KEEN Footwear this art installation displayed the Northern Lights on the walls of a vacant lot. It was very interesting to say the least, a need to see them in the wild has resurfaced.

And this is where I leave you.
