The Oregon Dank Stars are Oregon grown skate and snowboard company which produce videos, accessories, and unique and attractive clothing for today’s misguided individuals. The Oregon Dank Stars have expressed their philosophy of supporting local business, wherever you may live. Can anyone, excluding shareholders and moneygrubbers, say anything good about Big Business and Corporate America’s influence on what we wear and what we buy Who wants to admit that someone’s grandfather designed their wardrobe Who wants to admit their paycheck goes to some tycoon in L.A who spends their money supporting some other corporate fat cat Do everyone in your community a favor…. buy local.
By means of what I would call nothing less than gorilla advertising and hand to hand sales and by the support of are friends and affiliates we have begun to cement ourselves into the local industry we have and cherish so much here in Portland. So many smoke and mirror company’s have come and gone over the years; it has become impossible to tell whose passionate these days though with the fall of one empire comes the birth of something pure. Stay positive, live life, and love what you do. OdS

But instead of giving the ball to the ref and running back to the sideline, Joe runs over to the goal post, lifts up the pad and pulls out a cell phone!

Hell-Roaring Creek
The first Summer that I lived in Colorado provided me with an opportunity to do some field work in the western Rocky Mountains.To reach my first campsite, I followed a rutted dirt road along the bank of Hell Roaring Creek, and found a rocky path that led to an abandoned mine.A cold, mountain stream gurgled and murmured within its narrow banks, at the bottom of a narrow defile carved by furious erosion to expose towering, jagged cliffs of maroon sandstone on one side, and a more gently sloping mass of granite on the other.By early afternoon, the maroon hills were softened by shadow, too steep to allow even the high Colorado sun to fully illuminate the bottom of the miniature gorge.I unfolded my double-burner Coleman stove, and placed it carefully on the hood.As the twin burners hissed bright blue heat, searing mixed vegetables on one side and Dinty Moore on the other, I watched swallows dart after insects against the backdrop of the waning Rocky Mountain sunset.I basked, self satisfied, in the sounds of the gurgling creek, the ever softening sunlight, lengthening shadows, and lilting, cool breeze.As dusk encroached, I settled in by flashlight with a Stephen King novel.I read, mesmerized as rain pattered on the roof and lightning flashed, momentarily revealing the churning mass of foliage around me and briefly illuminating the high cliffs, now turned blood-black.
