Boyd-Blog has been neglected for the past few weeks and months, but not without reason!  Please find some other links/photos on what has been occupying my time as of late.
I finally joined the IPhone crowd and am relishing the Instagram game despite my tardiness.  New Zealand is a fantastic place to be an amateur photographer and I am enjoying the social aspect of it all. Check out my new Iphone photo blog at http://adventurephilosopy.tumblr.com
I officially entered man-hood after gutting and processing my first deer. Â I still have yet to shoot a deer as I am a horrid shot, but my dog Lola is a savage…. Â Story told in full bloody detail at some point!
I began writing for two different ski-field operations in New Zealand this year, Treble Cone and Chill (a 12 mountain ski pass). Â Check the links for a few different posts:

I have also been trying to get my legs back under me and snowboarding when I can.  My competitive circuit has begun and thus far I’ve ended up in 5th place at the NZ Snowboarder Banked Slalom and 2nd overall at the K2 Big Mountain 4 day Chill series. Visit Chill and the Daily Dump Snow Report for videos and press.  Here are a few photos from the past two events:
