The Beginning of Powpow Neck Warmers

The inspiration to build a Powpow company was New Year's Day at Alpine Meadows, Lake Tahoe. We always ski the first day of the year – no crowds. Our cabin was walking distance to the slopes. Four feet of fresh, light powder had fallen over the past 48 hours. Roads were closed. Lifts were open. Still snowing in the morning… it was a powpow day! We were four adults and eight avid teenage skiers and snowboarders. Everyone grabbed their Powpow neck warmers and stepped outside. It started out a bit blustery, but nothing was going to stop us. The mountain was ours!

It was an amazing, carefree day. Fresh tracks. One of those days when every run is a great run. We’d started early and skied hard all morning. Everybody met at the mid-mountain lodge to beat the lunch crowd. The sun came out. The whole group, including our sons, urged us to finally start a company and sell Powpow neck warmers for cold, snow and chilly days.

We hope that Powpow neck warmers will keep you warm and happy while you enjoy the great outdoors and all it has to offer.
