Anskiere

We've got a place on the mountain in Fernie. Our neighbor is a 74 year old surgeon who volunteers for the local ski racing team as a trainer/medic. In return the hill grooms the ski out basically to his back door. He broke his femur last season and he was walking with crutches a few months later. He can't wait to get skiing again, awesome guy!

This. If you see a poacher coming, point em down. You can always use your own track to get farther next lap. Unless you're skinning in which case there'll be plenty left no matter where the last guy dropped in.

Heh been doing that for years! Over christmas got to the lot and threw a huge powerslide before parking . Guy beside me says (and my passenger already had his ski helmet on) now I know why he wears a helmet when you drive. + gg winter

I just started hitting lift+hike access terrain one day for whatever reason and things just snowballed. A day isn't a real ski day if it doesn't involve untracked powder.

In some of the pics it looks warm. It was always ~-25C with gale force winds. COLD! Its also hard to see in the pics but there are many crevasses with varying snow bridge depths as well as seracs in places. There was actually a serac fall right beside us as we were on our way up the Balfour col. Good route choice is important!

And then this past April we had FANTASTIC weather and had a great trip!

Thanks, I will let my friend know, they are his shots! Year 2, remote trigger avalanche caught us on final approach to the hut. We escaped burial but didn't feel safe continuing the approach so we packed it in till the following year: my skis Jordan Lakes are gay
