Heli-skiing

We did it. We went heli-skiing today on kilometres of untracked snow today in the Brandywine mountain south-west of Whistler resort. It’s really as good as the the hype. Skiing on runs in a resort will never be the same again. Greta and I did 4 runs and Kim and Mia did 3 runs. At 7 years old Mia’s among the youngest they’ve had heli-skiing and she revelled in it! The day started around 9am with instructions on how to use the avalanche beacons and then it was a short bus ride to the helipad and then onto the nearby mountains south of Whistler. I’ve been waiting 25-years to do this and it met all my expectations. Download 6 min Quicktime movie (44MB)

Powder-8 champ slope

We skied this slope which was used for the Canadian Powder-8 competition. Simply awesome.
