Recognized nationally for his poignant writing style, humor and knowledge of outdoor equipment, award-winning journalist and author Michael Hodgson is constantly «seeking out the wilder side of a mountain…» in search of a good story or a ridiculously tough place to test gear. Frankly, his friends are amazed that he can still walk. Michael is the copublisher of SNEWS®, a subscription-only news service for the outdoor and fitness industries and is a founding partner in Gear Trends® — www.Gear Trends.com — established in 1999 as an information website for new products and trends in the outdoor, snow sport, fitness, paddling and bike markets.
