Unbearable DVD

Introducing "the Unbearable Lightness of Skiing" DVD.Filmed, edited and produced by me, starring all my great friends.

The "unbearable"captures the essence of what we do out here, it is the simple pleasures of backcountry skiing combining some exhilirating ascents with awesome descents.  The three best adventures from last year interwoven with the best footage from every other day. If you have enjoyed my movies on youtube you will enjoy the clarity and quality of watching this on your TV. The movie is 15 minutes long and has an additional 6 minute Sorcerer traverse vignette.

I entered the movie into the Baff International Mountain FIlm festival and it was a finalist and is now on their world tour.

The Sweet Selkirks

Happy New Year. Our amazing caribbean vacation is over and its time to start skiing again. I tried to upload this movie from down there but I could never find a connection that was quick enough to upload it. So its a little late but enjoy. I am back and will be in the skin track groove quick enough.

Mt-Rogers

     Today's run is one of the premier runs in Roger's Pass, if only because it is off Mt-Rogers.  Sitting at 10 500 feet it is one of the higher peaks in the park and around the 30th highest in the Selkirks. A beautiful mountain that towers above the highway, 6200 feet above it.

It has been around four years since I have skied off its summit, pre-blog. Before I started taking pictures and filming obsessively.

Today was worth the four year wait, with conditions uncertain and a mix of sun and clouds it seemed like a great option. We, Joey, Conor, Isaac, Mark and myself, toured up quickly to the glaciated bench under the face and enjoyed lunch. The sun began poking out and we were psyched to skin our way to the summit.

Freezing winds and cold temperatures meant we didn't stay on the summit for long but who could with such a great line awaiting. We all carved in to the face and giggled our way down through the cold fast powder. Down and down until around 6000 feet where the conditions got real bad, real quickly. Frozen crusts and poorly covered rocks brought us to our car.

Awesome day, wicked terrain, and great footage.
