Selkirk
Mountain Experience

A great deal of my
ski-mountaineering experience has been gained under the guidance of Ruedi
Beglinger, Owner and Operator of Selkirk Mountain Experience - Durrand Glacier
Chalet. Without a doubt, Ruedi is the Best Ski Mountaineering Guide
available. A week with Ruedi generally involves climbing 40,000+ ft., 3 peaks a
day, icefall routes and steep, deep powder. A large part of my ski-mountaineering
portfolio has been compiled through Ruedi's cooperation.

EPIC
Boards
Dan Tricco's Epic
Boards is a local Collingwood company that has specialized in the design and
production of hand-crafted kite and wake boards. Dan's skill at board building
is only surpassed by his ability to 'model' on the water for my photographs. |

Purcell
Lodge

Purcell Lodge was the first location my buddies Brad
Belford, Stuart Jones and I went to for a week of backcountry skiing. Our 'avoidance' of the
Spillimacheen River water hazard and extensive shin damage kept Paul and the
other guests quite amused. We had our hands full, revelling in the awesome, deep
powder. Following the visit, Paul was quite helpful in getting my gears moving
towards a mountain lifestyle. Paul and his wife Ann were also excellent hosts two
years ago when I introduced my wife Pat and our Kiwi friend Neville Mallett to
backcountry skiing. |
