The snow just continues to drop in March…. A typical spring with longer hours and even bigger dumps.

La Nina is far from over…

We found time to get some powder turns in between filming drops…..

This was one of my favorite runs..

When Catskiing at Monashee Powder there is no shortage of things to pop off of. or on to..

Its really a paradise for those who like to get into the air.

Sometimes being in the mountains in Revelstoke you gotta stop and look around at the view..

Just not when your ripping a fresh line..

Daryl cooking down a slope at K3 head down and knows the view will be there when he is done.

Pillow drops are one of the best features of backcountry Catskiing operations terrain.

White Grizzly has plenty of them.

When the snow is deep.. you can just huck without too much consequence..

In Revelstoke its deep alot so subsequently there is alot of hucking.

 

Diggin your heels

We all dig our heels in sometimes.. especially on issues that matter deeply to us.

Brain is a bit stubborn when it comes to big powder events…. With over 170cm over the week..

He is pretty much demanding he stays on the job until all the guiding work is done…

When we get up to operations filming it great to see guests just “Giver” on big fluffy powder days.. At White Grizzly you could huck and never hit bottom it seems. This kid from Michigan showed his mettle on this sizable air.
