Not sure what this whole Gelände Quaffing thing is all about? Read this and then check out the video.

In 1986, the skis were skinny and the snow was fat, during a 14 foot storm, the infamous underground crew of the Jackson Hole Air Force was going stir crazy in the Bear Claw Café, waiting for the mountain to open. In those days the bartender would send a freshly filled beer mug sliding down the bar to the patron who ordered it. One fateful night a beer mug slid off the end of the bar, took air, was caught seconds before a glass shattering catastrophe, and promptly pounded. Gelände Quaffing was born. Apres’ ski competitions followed, testing the unique skills of all who entered, and provided exciting entertainment for all spectators. But somewhere along the way Gelände Quaffing was lost and the après ski spirit forgotten.

Stay tuned for more details on the auction and how to sign your team up early.

    I’ve heard strange reports of teams’ preparations for this year’s event. Things like Team S&S, clad in Plate Frames, working out team tactics with Tom Brady, Team Velocity developing clothing impervious to PBR and Team Smith developing optically-correct beer goggles. Even now, Team Mystery Ranch/Magpul are cloistered away at Brokeback Ranch, high in the Rockies undergoing extreme Pilates and Tai-bo workouts.

    The dedication of these tactical drinking athletes is rather stunning.
