Did I crash on my bike, or clean 105 campsites today?

Well, I think I found the ultimate lunch spot at work. #blanketcreek @seerevelstoke

The views from my office this summer. Blanket Creek opens today. Come say hi.

Well, eight months of funemployment are just about up. It was capped off with a great five day trip to the coast, riding amazing trails with awesome people. When I hit the road, I thought i'd be riding by myself most of the time, but then you see some friends drinking beet at the trail head at the start of your first ride in Pemberton and next thing you know you're making burritos by the campfire, going to a backyard BBQ in Squamish and getting a tour of the North Shore. All capped off with a fun-as-hell trail in Abbotsford of all places. Thanks everyone for the hospitality and the company.

I think I got my first look at Forever Young couloir on one of my first ever ski tours eight years. At the time I was in terrible shape and it was out of my reach. Since then, my fitness improved but I never found the right group or conditions to ski this Rogers Pass classic. Well, today was the day to finally check it off the list in amazing spring conditions. We had a great tour and great ski and the run lived up to expectations.

When you find out your friends are lovers... @minderama @scenesfromthetrail @adventuresofspruce
