A few years ago, Taylor Carlton and friends had the idea to put on a DIY banked slalom in the Donner Summit backcountry. It was great, except for one glaring issue — the Forest Service wanted to see a permit. Well, Taylor got his permit, and now the event, in its third year, has gone legit.
All proceeds will go toward funding the proposed Rocker Memorial Skatepark in Truckee, CA.
