Nadia Samer, Kasie Stroshin and Jen Ashton made the brave decision to take me snowmobiling and skiing up the Rutherford. We had fun inhaling the wonderful 2-stroke fumes and got a little powder skiing in while we were up there. Read more for the shenanigans!

In April 2009 I had the privilege to join Dave and Daryl Treadway on a sled ski mission in the Stewart BC, Hyder AK area. When I tagged up with them in the zone (I came in a few days after them), the boys had already laid down some impressive lines and they continued to push it while I was there. I ended up being more of a spectator/documenter on this trip than a participant because the level of skiing was so out there. The mind set of the boys was very focused on slaying big lines and they were making remarkable progress. It was a special trip, the kind that only happens a few times in a lifetime. It was the kind of trip where everything went right, well, almost everything.

There is also an amateur photography contest and a showing of Swift, Silent, Deep. Read more for event details.

Austin Ross is one of the lucky guys who grew up in Whistler, the offspring of two ski bum parents. He skis with the likes of Callum Petit, Sean Petit, and Kye Petersen. His smile is big enough to light Blackcomb mountain on a storm day, and his positive attitude is infectious. By the way, he's also an incredibly talented skier. Read more.
