Protect Our Winters (POW) is a group of outdoor athletes, scientists, creative professionals, and business leaders dedicated to climate change activism. The 501(c)(3) nonprofit’s headline cause is carbon neutrality, which it aims to approach through policy-level and grassroots channels.

Alpinist Graham Zimmerman is the athlete manager for POW. To him, the group relies on community engagement and what he calls “imperfect advocacy” to impact policy from the ground up. Somewear Labs considers the group’s work vital to its mission.

“We designed our Global Hotspot to enhance the backcountry experience for skiers and riders,” said Jonathan Besquin, Marketing Lead for Somewear Labs. “But it’s hard to support and protect avid backcountry skiers, splitboarders, and mountaineers if winters cease to exist. POW’s work is critical in ensuring that winters and deep snow will be around for future generations.”

Here’s a look at what’s up for grabs through the Somewear Labs giveaway.
