So many people are hanging up the ski gear and unpacking the golf clubs… its so strange because this time of year.. its so still on snow is flying everywhere..

Sadly most operations wrap up the season this week.. not because the conditions are not great… they are amazing.

Go get yourself some spring fresh turns!

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

This was one of my favorite runs..

A typical day of Catskiing  is usually all about powder turns. However, If you ask your guides nicely and have demonstrated a bit of skill.. they may point out a few features to “Huck your Meat”.

For the most part there is always a fairly reasonable way down to the cats.

When your with a media crew and your looking to get a few good photos it pays off to ask one of your guides to not just show you a drop.. but perhaps show you how to nail it.

Joe was our willing participant and thanks to some radio guiding with lead guide Scott he stomped the landing avoiding what he notified as a “Giant Ice Cookie” just left of his landing (just out of photo frame)

Thanks Joe!

One of the aspects of Catskiing that sometimes gets less attention is the importance of great guides… The Selkrik Guides led by Jason were amazing to work with from a media perspective- and judging from the sore cheeks of the smiling guests we went with.. they felt the same way.

Early season my ass..it looks like mid season pow!

Catskiing Canada got up at Selkirk Wilderness Skiing in Meadow Creek BC and on this early January day was just one of may shots that captured the reason people have been coming here for the past 35 years.

Let me know if you see the skier… apparently this place gets even better… we found it hard to imagine it could get any better..

It honestly was the trip that reset my reality to what Catskiing can be.
