Empty Asulkan Weekend

5/5 to 5/8/2022 – I received an unexpected message from Burket a few days before this trip asking if I had any interest in a last minute booking of the Asulkan Hut off Rogers Pass, BC. The hut looked empty that weekend and there was still decent snow coverage so I figured why not? Burket […]

Icefields for a few

3/21 to 3/25/2022 – As spring starts to peek its head from the slumber of each winter, the mountains begin to open their arms for all sorts of lovely skiing opportunities.

7/20 to 8/8/2019 – Slow down. Life gets away from us quickly and time slips away. Close friends move and shake and, suddenly it seems, they haven’t seen each other in a year or more.

The Yoho Traverse

3/22 to 3/25/2016 – Being that we live so close to the border, Grete and I had a major Canadian itch to scratch this last ski season.  We wanted to get our feet wet with Canadian ski traversing and hoped to get to see some gigantic glaciers too!  Thankfully, we had friends (Anthony and Becca) […]

Canadians Are Good People

3/2/14 to 3/8/14 – There is a certain special trip ski patroller’s can work to experience and it is called an ‘exchange.’  The basic idea is that one ski area will trade two of its patrollers with another ski area’s patrollers for a few days.  As a visiting patroller your goal is to keep up (on the […]

The Great Tour… Finally

As promised months ago, I finally have begun making progress on editing through the photos of Dave, (Jonny) and I’s bike tour from this last fall.  The tour covered ~1700 miles in 44 days of biking and was hands-down one of the most amazing adventures I have ever been on.  Obviously, a month and a […]
