Gelande Quaffing - Boot Camp Begins

Gelande Quaffing is a "sport" of sorts contrived at the Mangy Moose in Jackson Hole, Wyoming by the Jackson Hole Air Force. On one fateful night a beer slid down the bar unclaimed by anyone as it passed. Just before it hit the ground a skier caught it and downed it. Gelande Quaffing was born.

Cloudveil, in lieu of a new documentary about the Jackson Hole Air Force called Swift.Silent.Deep, has been working hard to bring back this sport to its glory. This past month at the Outdoor Retailer Show in Salt Lake City the Snaz.com was on hand to document the rebirth of gelande quaffing.

In preparation for the Gelande Quaffing World Championships on February 27 in Jackson, team Backcountry.com is stepping up their game with boot camp this past weekend. See you in Jackson.

The game was created in the Bear Claw Cafe which is now the Village Cafe, for sake of proper history.

thanks for the clarification. I thought that I may have mentioned the wrong location.
