Cougar Mountain Bike - 02/21/09

Emily, Yaniv, and I went on a great ride up Cougar Mountain. You definitely feel the thousand feet or so climb up Tolt Hill. Good times though. No pictures were taken.

Rogers Pass BC Ski - 02/14-18/09

Matt, Emily, and I headed up to British Columbia to ski for 5 days at Rogers Pass. Being a big backcountry skier, I have heard of the legendary Rogers Pass, but have never been there. I was super psyched when they invited me to join them this year. The access is excellent, starting up very high, and the terrain is huge and perfect for ski touring. Not to mention the Selkirk creamy snow.

Day 1: We went skiing below Mount Sir Donald on the Vaux Moraines. Pictures can be found at http://alpinenapping.com/main.php/v/mountains/2009/rogerspass-02_14_09/

Day 2: We did a huge traverse over Little Sifton. Pictures can be found at http://alpinenapping.com/main.php/v/mountains/2009/rogerspass-02_15_09/

Day 3: We had a mellow day up at Balu Pass. Pictures can be found at http://alpinenapping.com/main.php/v/mountains/2009/rogerspass-02_16_09/

Day 4: We set out for our biggest day and did the Young's Peak Traverse. Pictures can be found at http://alpinenapping.com/main.php/v/mountains/2009/rogerspass-02_17_09/

Slot Couloir BC Ski - 02/01/09

After reading on TAY that the conditions we found at Rampart Lakes was localized and people were finding excellent conditions in the Slot Couloir, Matt and Emily convinced me to join them. I have to admit I was pretty scared to ski the slot and looking at it from above did not help the situation. But Matt and Emily would not let me chicken out and soon I was making my way down it. I was pretty tentative at first, but was able to open it up and link turns. It was such an amazing ski and very glad to have done it.
