mrshyt asked:

I have a pair of ski boots, they smell pretty bad, not of damp or moisture, but more musty, like they’ve been sitting in a cupboard with no air for 50 years. I’m talking about the inner sock of the boot. How can I get rid of the smell?

Gabrielle asked:

I’m looking to book a ski trip out West either the week before or of Christmas. I’ve skied about 10 different mountains, from Colorado to Wyoming and British Columbia. I would like to do it as cheaply as possible (which is almost impossible when you go West) But the accomodations/mountain have to be great.
Thanks!
