As the sun breaks, the wildflowers blow and slush pits signify the changing of seasons, frequency TSJ welcomes the first signs of summer with the release of our latest: Issue #7.2.  While spots like Whistler, Mammoth and Hood are still enjoying the rad, the season is just ramping up in South America. And that’s where frequency TSJ Issue #7.2 takes you, dropping in on Bariloche, Argentina for a two-week binge session of snow, discos, and more carne than you can consume. Back in the spotlight, Gretchen Bleiler sits with John Laing to discuss not only her contest exploits, but also her recent move to backcountry riding, where she continues to push snowboarding forward. As well, Natalie Langmann takes us to another remote locale: Haida Gwaii on British Columbia’s northwest coast, for a trip into a culture thousands of years old—and the massive mountains in nearby Terrace, BC. And while we’re on the topic of remote locations, Paul Laca’s photo gallery, “The Boundaries of Civilization”, features exactly that: the Bering Sea, Chugach Mountains, Nevada desert, and beyond… And last but not least, publisher Jeff Galbraith profiles the legacy of Northwest native Blair Habenicht.

With installments from Tahoe’s Area 241, Steamboat, Montana, Japan, Switzerland, and the aura of The Van rounding out the issue, frequency TSJ’s 22nd release is dropping now—just in time for spring riding in the Northern Hemisphere and the first snowfalls down south.
